This charming wine from the Southern Rhone comes from the estate of Frederic Chandiere, whose family vines average between 40 to 60 years old. The Chandiere's use only stainless steel while creating their wines, in an attempt to keep the brilliance and freshness of the Viognier while maintaining bright acidity. Everything is harmonious and balanced with this interesting find from the Luberon, a place where wine has been made for the last two thousand years. Pairs well with roast chicken and oysters.

The Ventoux region sits in the south-eastern corner of the Rhone valley, high on the Vaucluse plateau, and east of the ancient city of Avignon and the great vineyards of Chateauneuf du Pape. The higher altitudes have generally led to lighter-bodied reds and rose's that were essentially only suitable for young drinking, though some producers have now started crafting more durable reds that are age-worthy.
