In the heart of the Rhône Valley, where vineyards shape the identity of the landscape, lies an estate that carries within it the soul of this fascinating region: Domaine de la Dague. This mysterious, powerful name is an invitation to travel back in time to the days when the dagger, a short, sharp blade, was the weapon of adventurers, protectors of the land and builders of legends.
