Worth knowing
AOC Ventoux enjoys a sun-kissed Mediterranean climate. The blue of the sky is more intense, the fragrances more sublime, colours magnified. The sun shines with all its brilliance between 2700 and 2900 hours per year in Provence. Vines, as well as olive and almond trees soak in the life-giving rays of what is record sunshine.
However, the picture would not be complete without the Mistral wind. The Mistral is indissociable from the AOC Ventoux landscape, where it bends its trees, invites its “Comtadins” to protect their houses and their fields from attack. It also prevents humidity from settling in, it dries the vines and plantations in record time.
The mistral that blows its way along the Rhône Valley; the privileged climate of Provence and the protective mass of Mont Ventoux make the earth of AOC Ventoux a rich combination propitious to producing wines of real character.
Visitor comments
- "Decided to give this a try as the villa we stayed in was offering a 10% discount. We also tried out some of the wines both from the local shop and in the Restaurants in Bedoin. Went for a selection mainly as a souvenir from our holiday and also because we particularly like Southern French Rose. The shop is clean and modern and you can sample before you buy." - Trip Advisor
- "We stopped here to buy vine, having bought some of their produce at the end of last year when the supermarkets had their Foires du Vin. Unlike some of the other places, this is not just a "marketing opportunity" with their emphasis on decor, and high end price ranges. Instead there is a good range of their products, including "bag in box" options as well as bottles at sensible prices." - Trip Advisor
