In the glass and in the cellar

Grapes: 95 % Roussanne, 5 % Grenache Blanc

Origin: AOP Ventoux, Domaine de la Coquillade near Gargas in the Luberon Regional Park

Vineyard: Vines around the Hotel Coquillade, hand-picked; certified organic (AB), converting to biodynamics since 2024

Soils: Limestone-rich and iron-bearing, red and sandy, well drained

Climate: Mediterranean, hot days and cool nights

Winemaking: Maceration and pressing of whole berries, spontaneous fermentation in amphorae and barriques

Ageing: About 6 months on the fine lees in amphorae and used barriques

Alcohol: 13.5 % vol

Almost pure Roussanne, fermented in amphorae and used barriques. Fig, melon, white peach and citrus on the nose, over a salty, mineral thread. On the palate it is powerful and fresh at once, with real texture, notes of honey and a long finish.

This one wants food: seafood, fish, Mediterranean vegetable dishes with olive oil. For the aperitif we would open the Elyo Blanc instead and save this bottle for the main course.

The winery

Domaine de la Coquillade

On a hill above Gargas, looking out at Mont Ventoux, oenologist Frank John from Germany's Pfalz has been converting the estate to biodynamics since 2024. The work is done without herbicides and without tilling.

Still unsure?

What is the difference between Elyo and Coquillade?

They are the estate's two ranges from the Luberon, each in white, rosé and red. Elyo is the entry range, with wines at around CHF 29. The Coquillade wines cost CHF 39. Red and rosé in both ranges are made from Syrah and Grenache. The Elyo Blanc blends Marsanne, Viognier, Grenache Blanc and Roussanne, while the Coquillade Blanc is almost pure Roussanne.
