Vieilles Vignes

2021 Ventoux Red Blend

The Comte Louis De Clermont Tonnerre Vieilles Vignes is an exquisite red blend hailing from the picturesque Ventoux region. This wine boasts a captivating deep ruby color that hints at its rich character. On the nose, it reveals an enticing bouquet of dark fruit aromas, with notes of black cherry and plum intertwined with subtle hints of spice and earthy undertones, providing a delightful complexity. The palate is a harmonious symphony of flavors, where the prominent fruitiness is beautifully balanced by a medium-bodied structure and a refreshing acidity that lifts the wine. The soft, velvety tannins add a touch of elegance, making it approachable yet sophisticated. This wine finishes dry, leaving a lingering impression that invites you back for another sip, embodying the true essence of Ventoux's terroir and winemaking tradition.

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.
