This cooperative was founded in 1929 in the south of France to bring a few small, dedicated growers together and give them the ability to continue to farm their land traditionally yet have access to modern winemaking equipment. This partnership has allowed them to craft impressive wines at extraordinary prices. Sourced from terraced vineyards just a few miles outside the ancient cites of Nîmes in the western edge of the Languedoc, this Pinot Noir flaunts lively notes of cherry and cranberry intermingled with bright floral note on the nose. The palate is vibrant with ripe cherry and a touch of fresh herbs to bring more interest to this incredible value.
