Colour : golden yellow with a franck, steady and brilliant colour.

This is a wine without excessive sweetness.

Beaumes is a word which originates from Balmes in old French and means " caves ", Venise comes from the name of the rovince , the county of Venaisson (Comptat Venaissin).
The hillsides and the plain are protected from the strong Mistral (North) wind by the contours of the " Dentelles de Montmirail ". They face south and are thus well exposed to sunlight.
