Domaine Pouizin is located in the village of Visan in France's Southern Rhône Valley. Often called a "Blessed Region," the Rhône Valley has an ideal climate for grape growing. The vineyards feature several plots on hillsides which have a stony, clayey and calcareous soil which are friendly to vines and little else. The stones absorb the hot summer sun and then reflect warmth onto the vines at night. The climate is mediterranean, although the Mistral, a cold northerly wind that can endure for days on end, is a feature of the Southern Rhône. The dry Mistral winds, however, minimize vine disease and dry out the vineyard if hit with summer rains.
Great food wine! Still young and with dry tannins, it has a real potential that will develop and soften over the next few years. A great buy!
