WINE DESCRIPTION
Bernard Gripa Le Berceau Saint-Joseph Blanc is a premium white wine produced by Bernard Gripa, a highly respected winery located in the Saint-Joseph appellation of the Northern Rhône region, France. The wine is made from Marsanne grapes grown in the estate's vineyards, which benefit from the area's unique terroir, characterized by granite soils and a cool continental climate. The wine is made using traditional winemaking techniques, including aging in oak barrels, which adds complexity and depth to the wine. The resulting wine is full-bodied and rich, with notes of stone fruit, honey, and a subtle nutty character, making it an ideal choice for pairing with creamy seafood dishes, poultry, and cheeses.

ORIGINS
Winery: Bernard Gripa
Region: Rhone
The Rhone wine region is located in southeastern France. It runs along the Rhone River roughly from Lyon in the north to Avignon in the south. It is divided into two main sub-regions: the Northern Rhone, running from Lyon to Montelimar, and the Southern Rhone, from Montelimar to Avignon. Although wines of all color are made, both regions are most famous for thier red wine. The Northern Rhone is known for its full-bodied red wines made from Syrah grapes with the possible inclusion of some white grapes, while the Southern Rhone is known for its blends of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre grapes. The region has a long history of wine production, dating back to the ancient Romans with the sites of some former Roman vineyards being replanted surrounding the town of Vienne.CUSTOMER RATING
