Cuvee Ventabren

Gigondas 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 10% Cinsault

The Moulin De La Gardette Cuvee Ventabren is an exquisite red wine that beautifully showcases the rich terroir of Gigondas. This blend, composed primarily of Grenache, with a touch of Syrah and Cinsault, captivates the senses with its deep ruby color. On the palate, it delivers a medium-bodied experience, marked by vibrant acidity that brings freshness and balance. The fruit intensity is pronounced, presenting delightful notes of ripe dark berries, along with subtle hints of spice and earthiness that reflect the region's unique character. Tannins are notably firm yet well-integrated, contributing to a structured mouthfeel that speaks to the potential for aging. The wine finishes dry, leaving a lasting impression of elegance and refinement that is truly characteristic of its origin.

France

While it was not the first country to master winemaking, no other country has determined the course of wine and wine culture as much as France. From the sparkling wines of Champagne to the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay of Burgundy; from Bordeaux's sumptuous blends to Alsace's Riesling; and from the Loire Valley's Sauvignon Blancs to exciting new regions like Pays d'Oc in the south, France has given the world nearly all the major styles and grape varieties that dominate what we drink today. There are numerous reasons why France and wine are so inextricably linked, but perhaps the foremost is geography. Few places can rival France's unique array of hot and cool-climate regions and the abundant maritime influences and mountainous terrain found throughout the country.
