Wine Description
Aleph est la première lettre de l'alphabet phénicien, et signifiait 'boeuf'. Le A retourné à l'envers en dépeint ainsi les cornes. Et la gravure montre la cérémonie du 'boeuf gras' durant laquelle les bouchers faisaient parader leurs bœufs.
Winery
We are the new kids on the block, freshly installed in the Rhône Valley. In fact, we have been working for other wineries in the area since 2011, but the idea of starting our own winery has now become a reality with 2016 vintage.
Our winery is located in Lemps, in the northern Rhône, between Lyon and Avignon. We have vineyards in Saint Joseph, Cornas, Collines Rhodaniennes, Côtes du Rhône Villages Massif d'Uchaux and Sainte Cécile, as well as in Côtes du Rhône.
