Le vallon aux Galets - Côtes du Rhône 2022

This is a dark and earthy GSM blend from Vallon aux Galets, with a balance of fruit and oak, layered with depth. This is a smoky wine that is screaming for some charred meat.

The French wine scene can be somewhat of a minefield at times, all we really want is a supplier that makes wines from all across the country while still displaying regional and sub-regional typicity.. Simple right?!? Well, enter Maison Johanès Boubée, which is a winery that has succeeded in the French landscape, while relatively unknown outside its borders. The winery has access to all the goodies around the country, and aside from an impressive winemaking team, it also employs sommeliers to taste each wine and confirm it captures the all-important terroir feel of each region. 

The winery is a nod to the old-school way, where you didn’t need to boast a fancy label to sell a bottle of wine, and the juice inside is the most important part. We have tasted a wide range of their wines and are very impressed with the overall quality of each bottle. Vallon aux Galets is one of their premium wineries located in Côtes du Rhône, highlighting expressions of Grenache.
