Crozes-Hermitage

Producers and Wine Reviews about the "Crozes-Hermitage AOC" Show in wein.plus:places

Area classified as cru (top appellation) for red wines (90% of production) and white wines in the northern section of the Rhône on the left bank. A well-known aficionado of the wines was the locally famous Bandit Mandrin. The vineyards cover around 1,500 hectares of vines in eleven communes in the Drôme department. In the northern area, the subsoil consists of granite and weathered clay with terraced vineyards.

There is a mixture of continental and Mediterranean climate with moderate rainfall.
