In 1953, Jean-Louis Ferran discovered the “Escaravailles”. At the time, he was working for a substantial Maison in Gigondas as a wine broker. When he first came across the ruined farmhouse, it was without electricity, water or vineyards: it was love at first sight.  He saw enormous potential there and finally sold his old car and borrowed money to buy this piece of paradise.  Now, his grand daughter, Madeline Ferran has taken over the wine making duties of the estate.

The aromatics burst from the glass with lots of red berries and a touch of menthol.  The palate is round and structured with more black fruits and cracked pepper.
