Pays d'Oc, France
Introducing Les FRÈRES Bastards, a delightful collection from the creators of Fat bastard
ABOUT THIS WINE:
Les FRÈRES Bastards
Grenache - Syrah - Mourvèdre
The Vin de France appellation enables us to source the finest French grapes from the best growing zones: Left bank of the Rhône river & Roussillon region for the Grenache noir (pebbles stones), Right bank of the Rhône river & Minervois region for the Syrah (pebbles stones & limestone soils), Languedoc region for the Mourvèdre (clay & limestone soils). The Syrah is picked first, beginning of September, the Grenache noir mid-September and the Mourvèdre, the last to ripen, around the end of September/early October. Two to three-week fermentation for the Syrah and the Grenache noir, and three to four weeks for the Mourvèdre. All grapes are vinified separately and then blended once fermentations are finished.

WINE REGION:
Pays d'Oc
If you've vacationed in the south of France, you've probably visited the Pays d'Oc region. Embracing the Mediterranean from Spain to Provence, this region is famed as much for its Grenache, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay as its endless sunshine. Pays d'Oc covers non-AOC wines made across this large, sun-kissed region, known as France's "New World." Far from the regulations of the AOC system, pioneering winemakers headed here to experiment, crafting many now-famous wines that often state their grape variety on the label—not something that was common in France before then.
