AboutArnoux & Fils
Arnoux & Fils traces its family winegrowing in Vacqueyras to 1717, when an ancestor, Pierre Bovis, received a vineyard parcel. The house remained focused on its own vines until 1936, when growing demand led it to begin purchasing freshly harvested grapes. Aimé Arnoux guided that expansion, building a broader Southern Rhône range around the family’s original work.
The family’s vineyards lie on the Garrigues plateau beneath the Dentelles de Montmirail, with red clay-limestone soils threaded with rounded stones. Estate fruit and grapes from other growers support a range spanning several Southern Rhône appellations.

French Dessert
Orange blossom, peach, ripe apple and pear rise from an intensely aromatic profile, with a clean mineral note adding definition. Sweet and full-flavoured, the palate layers stone fruit and floral detail over a smooth, rounded texture. A faint bitter edge refreshes the finish, keeping the lingering fruit poised enough for fruit desserts, blue cheese or solo sipping.
