Full dark red colour with some black highlights. Syrah dominated with blueberry, cranberry, sherry, violet and a hint of cumin. Ventoux rouge is a full bodied wine with black fruits and scrubland aromas.
Ventoux is predominantly a blend of Syrah and Grenache and originates from sloping vineyards that lie at up to 500 metres above sea level. Vidal-Fleury was founded in 1781 and is the oldest wine house in the Rhône. From their base amongst the Cote Rotie vineyards they make a full range of wines from across the whole Rhône Valley.

About Vidal Fleury
Founded in 1781, Vidal-Fleury is located in the midst of the Côte-Rôtie vineyards in the Northern Rhône, and is the oldest continuously operating wine producer in the Rhône Valley. Since the early days Vidal-Fleury has established a reputation for the production of high quality wines which show individuality and the typicity of the different Rhône appellations from which they come. Vidal-Fleury's renaissance began in 1984 when it was purchased by the Guigal family whose support allowed the business to flourish whilst still allowing it to operate independently.
