Winery | Located in a picturesque valley surrounded by Mediterranean vegetation, the Royes vineyard forms an amphitheatre covering six hectares. This is a spectacular Saint Joseph site on south-facing steep slopes on the edge of Cornas. The soil is made of clay and limestone, which imparts elegance to the resulting wine. The vineyard is sustainably cultivated, but the steep slopes make mechanisation impossible; instead, the vines are meticulously cultivated by hand. |
