La Belle France

Grenache

A time-tested region, classic grape variety, and Gold Medal-winning winemakers make our La Belle France Grenache from the Pays d’Oc an exquisite example of Old World wine. This 100 percent varietal wine displays Grenache’s beloved characteristics with aromas of baking spices and dried flowers and a palate packed with ripe berry flavors. The well-drained, low fertile soils found in the south of France create the ideal conditions for concentrated fruit at smaller yields.

This vintage is another example of La Belle France’s talent for translating classic varieties and esteemed regions into approachable and delicious wines. We encourage you to pop the cork and enjoy this wine alongside traditional French dishes such as roast ...

WINE REGION:

Outline of Pays d'Oc IGP

Pays d'Oc IGP

If you've vacationed in the south of France, you've probably visited the Pays d'Oc region. Embracing the Mediterranean from Spain to Provence, this region is famed as much for its Grenache, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay as its endless sunshine. Pays d'Oc covers non-AOC wines made across this large, sun-kissed region, known as France's "New World." Far from the regulations of the AOC system, pioneering winemakers headed here to experiment, crafting many now-famous wines that often state their grape variety on the label—not something that was common in France before then. IGP (Indication Géographique Protégée) within France’s wine classification system focuses on controlling regional and geographical origin. The category is less restrictive than the AOC classification and gives winemakers more freedom with style and taste profile when creating wines.
