2018 Ventoux Rouge “Mégaphone”

Frédéric & Daniel Brunier
Discount Eligible $27.00
SOLD OUT

Ever been skiing in Provence? It’s a bit of a secret among locals, but you can, in fact, on top of snowcapped Mont Ventoux for a month or so in winter—one chairlift and four small trails with real snow. Down the hill a bit lie the Ventoux vineyards. In the glass, fresh mountain air and exuberant Provençal olive and plum fruit make an unexpected, delicious encounter.

Terroirs

Great winemakers, great terroirs, there is never any hurry. And I no longer buy into this idea of “peak” maturity. Great winemakers, great terroirs, their wines offer different pleasures at different ages.
