Côtes du Rhône Château Signac 1990
The Côtes du Rhône Château Signac 1990 is a rosé wine produced in the renowned Rhône region of southeastern France. Bottled directly at the estate in the late weeks of 1990, this wine carries the Appellation Côtes-du-Rhône Contrôlée classification. It was originally imported by IRMA VIN A/S and features an alcohol content of 12.5% with a residual sugar level of 2.0 g/l.
The Rhône Valley has a rich viticultural history dating back to Roman times. The region is geographically divided into two distinct areas: the northern part with its steep slopes, and the warmer southern sector. The Côtes du Rhône appellation, which gained its AOC status in 1937, is a vast regional designation covering 171 communes across six departments, stretching from Vienne in the north to Avignon in the south. It stands as France's second-largest AOC.
Across this expansive appellation, the terroir varies significantly, transitioning from granite soils in the north to limestone, clay, and pebble gravel in the south. While the Rhône Valley is primarily recognized for its red wines, the appellation also has a long-standing tradition of producing rosé wines, utilizing the diverse conditions of the valley.
The history of the wine
Below, you can delve into the history of this wine — its producer, grape, area, and region.
Côtes du Rhône
The Rhône Valley in south-eastern France has grown wine since Roman times. The region falls into two parts: the northern section with steep slopes, where Syrah produces deep wines in Côte-Rôtie and Hermitage, and the warmer south, where Grenache-based blends culminate in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The wines are spicy and powerful with dark berries, pepper and garrigue herbs.
