Anne Pichon estate is located in Mormoiron, at the bottom of Mont Ventoux. The estate was taken over by Marc and Anne Pichon in 2008. The vineyards are certified Organic since the beginning. Marc passed away in 2016 and his sister Veronique Pichon took up the torch to continue the tremendous efforts Marc had achieved in the vineyard and cellar. The estate consists today of 50 hectares. This cuvée’s Syrah and Grenache hang on the vine especially long, imbuing the wine with concentration and vibrant power. Raspberry and blackcurrant take the lead, with notes of violet, prune, cocoa, and cinnamon on the multifaceted palate.
