‘A perfumed and elegant red, with plum, wild raspberry and dried flowers layered with garrigue and crushed leaves, which add a pleasing earthiness. The silky and refined midpalate reveals a whiff of smoke and charred incense. Grenache and Cinsault. Drink now through 2028.’ – Kristen Bieler, Wine Spectator, 90/100

| Producer information | Château Pesquié, situated northeast of Avignon within the Rhône Valley, is a place that, according to Wine Spectator, looks like it has produced fine wines for decades. The estate consists of 250 acres of organic vineyards spread over the foothills of Mont Ventoux. Its landmark is the wind-whipped, white limestone peak that watches over the estate. Robert Parker calls Château Pesquié one of his 'all-time favorite producers in France', and their reputation confirms this after receiving more than a dozen 90-plus-point scores for their wines. Their wines are described as fresh, fruit-driven and exuberant, and are the best examples of today's Ventoux AOC bottlings. |
