<p>It is labeled a Vin de Pays de Vaucluse because the grapes come from vineyards
just outside the Côtes-du-Rhône zone. approach to wine making is to treat the raw materials with great respect . . .
they are not quite organic but only a whisker away from being able to make this
claim. The winemaker is a traditionalist and does not use wood, the wines are matured in traditional cement
tanks before being transferred to stainless steel before bottling.Nonetheless it is fresh and attractive
with typical Rhone flavors buttressed by just enough tannin to keep the wine
lively. For great values in French wines, it pays to look outside the more
popular appellations. A medium bodied gem with muted dark fruit aromas that hold up through a bold finish. Good acidity makes this a food-friendly wine. <br /></p>
