Pretty, silky berry fruit Pinot Noir from southern France a charming red that’s sure to please Owner of the vineyard for this supple, berry-rich red is Arthur Gourdon. Hes from a family weve been working with since the early 1990s. His dad, Vincent, was the original winemaker for the now legendary black red, Le XV du Prsident. Arthur is proud of his Languedoc vineyard that was first planted by his great great grandmother, Victoire. At its centre, she built a fontain, after which this delightful red is named. The plot lies just outside Bziers, close to the Roman fortified town, Les Ensrunes, Winemaker for Font del Victoire is Nicole McPheeters an American, who has made southern France her home. Impressed by the grapes from Arthurs vineyard, she bagged them for this berry and tobacco-scented red. Very versatile with food too.
