The Southern Rhône Valley is a renowned wine region located in the southeastern part of France. It is one of the most important wine-producing areas in the country and is famous for its diverse range of high-quality wines. The region stretches along the course of the Rhône River, covering several departments in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur and Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes regions.

IGP Méditerranée, also known as Indication Géographique Protégée (IGP) Méditerranée, is a wine appellation in the Mediterranean region of France. It is one of the many IGP designations in the country, which are part of the broader French wine classification system.

Climate & Terroir

The region experiences a Mediterranean climate with hot and dry summers, mild winters, and a significant influence from the Mediterranean Sea. The maritime climate helps moderate the temperatures in the vineyards and provides beneficial sea breezes.

IGP Méditerranée benefits from diverse terroirs, including various soil types, altitudes, and exposures. The soils range from limestone, clay, and gravel to sandy and stony terrains. These variations in terroir contribute to the different styles of wines produced in the region.

The IGP Méditerranée appellation allows winemakers to experiment with different grape varieties and winemaking techniques, providing a platform for creativity and innovation while maintaining a connection to the unique terroir of the Mediterranean coast of France. The wines of IGP Méditerranée offer a delightful reflection of the sunny and coastal influences of the region.
