Chateau Pesquie Terrasses Ventoux Blanc
Château Pesquié comprises 100 hectares of vines. Only organic treatments and composts are used in the vineyard. Weed control is done by turning over the soil, and harvesting is done by hand. There are three main terroirs on the property: rocky limestone clay, red clay, and loamy gray clay. Fortunately, the Ventoux has a cooler micro-climate than the vineyards near the Rhône, so Fred and Alex can be guaranteed a longer and slower ripening of their fruit. This is a blend of Viognier, Roussanne, Clairette, Grenache Blanc. Fermented and aged entirely in tank, the classic floral and
pit fruit flavors and aromas of the Viognier are tempered by the crispness of
Clairette and the creamy weight of Roussanne and Grenache Blanc.
