Marine and Paul Charavin ZouZou Côtes du Rhône Rouge 2022

ZOUZOU is a wine inspired by moments spent with friends. It is the little wine we enjoy as an aperitif. A fruity and light red wine.

60% Grenache, 40% Syrah

Biodynamic Wine

Soils composed of red sand covered with flat pebbles called “Lauzes”. The vines are located at the top of the Massif d’Uchaux at an altitude of approximately 280m.

It was born of the idea to create a new range to truly differentiate the family’s Côtes du Rhônes from the Coteaux des Travers range of wines. The label drawing is an original and ZouZou (literally, “a jovial, dynamic person who is always fun to be around”) is the nickname of Paul’s best friend.

In homage to him, they decided to craft a lighter and fruitier wine using carbonic maceration, and fermented and aged in concrete vats. Minimal-to-no sulfur is added, and then it is bottled early in order to preserve its naturally fresh fruit. It is full of velvety blueberry fruit with spice and low tannin, an eminently drinkable red wine.
