Appellation Île-de-France - IGP

The IGP Île-de-France appellation, located at the heart of the most populous region in France, offers a range of wines that reflect the diversity and richness of its unique terroir. Rich in viticultural history, this region benefits from a tempered oceanic climate with continental influences, allowing for the cultivation of a variety of grape varieties. The main grape varieties grown include Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Sauvignon Blanc, along with other lesser-known but equally captivating varieties.

Île-de-France wines are distinguished by their freshness, elegance, and finesse. The reds often reveal aromas of red and black fruits, with spicy notes, while the whites are characterised by their liveliness and floral and fruity notes. The rosé wines, on the other hand, charm with their freshness and lightness, making them ideal for summer aperitifs.

Although Île-de-France is less renowned than other major French winemaking regions, it is experiencing a renaissance in its wine production thanks to passionate winemakers who are rediscovering and enhancing this wine heritage. Adding these wines to your collection will diversify it while supporting local viticultural authenticity and innovation.
