The Maker
Darriaud wines are made by Julien Dugas, the other half of the winemaking duo in charge of Domaine Boutinot Rhone, based in the Southern Rhone Valley. Julien's career started back in 1997 when he gained qualifications in oenology and viticulture. He now produces wines across sites in Rhone including Gigondas, Cairanne, Vacqueyras and Charteauneuf-du-Pape.

The Wine
This wine comes from small production of specially selected parcels across different vineyards. A small proportion of the wine is made in aged oak barrels which adds to its depth and complexity. This wine is well balanced, and holds a nice bold flavour without being too heavy.

Producer
Pancracio is a Spanish artisan luxury chocolate company originating in Cadiz, Spain. Founded in 2003 by Pedro Alvarez who had a dream of making chocolate of the highest quality. Alvarez has an unmistakable passion for good taste and a keen eye for the aesthetics which can be admired in the brand's beautiful packaging. One of their main goals has always been to create original products with personality, simplicity and elegance. Alvarez was inspired to start a chocolate brand because his grandmother would make him and his siblings bread with chocolate. He called the company ‘Pancracio’, as the name alludes to something vintage, traditional and elegant. He wanted the brand to carry a retro image while at the same time evoking something clean and modern. 

In 2017, Alvarez sold Pancracio to Valencian investors, but his original vision of the brand remains intact. The product keeps its clean yet vintage identity. They also keep their commitment to quality. The company offers unique artisanal chocolate flavours such as crunchy chocolates, chocolate covered nuts, chocolate with salted chips and raspberry and roses chocolate to name a few. They put a keen focus on the originality of their products and a commitment to the finest quality chocolate.
