Producer Information Louis Barruol is an indefatigable force in the Rhne, the 14th generation in his family to be making wine in Gigondas. On what was once the site of a Roman villa, Louis cellars show spectacular remains of Roman vinification vats carved into the limestone. Here, Louis works with different grape varietals from the Rhne, vinifying each parcel separately. Hes taken to acting as amicro-ngociant, working with top growers in the region who still work with Srine. Producing only a few precious barrels of each cuve, Louis is helping to save the authenticity and identity of old Cte Rtie parcels. Together, he and Kermit blend our Northern Rhne wines and a Southern Ctes du Rhne Blanc and Rouge from a selection of Louis purchases.
