Welcome back, wine friends! In this episode, we're diving into the heart of Provence with a recap of an incredible visit to Chateau Sainte Marguerite, a prestigious Cru Classé estate in the Côte de Provence. I’ll be sharing insights into Provence’s wine regions, including the lesser-known La Londe appellation, and debunking some common myths, like the idea that grape harvesters are only for mass-produced wines. You’ll also get a taste of the unique sensory experiences offered at the winery and learn more about what makes Cru Classé wines so special in Provence. And, of course, I’ll share some mouth-watering food pairings to complement these exceptional wines.
And a special thanks to Coravin, our sponsor for this episode, for giving wine enthusiasts the chance to explore wines one glass at a time without uncorking the entire bottle. Tune in for an inspiring chat, and don't forget to pour yourself something special!
