Cooperative
Thursday, November 20th, 2008I learned something last week. There are cooperatives that make wine. This means that several small vineyards all put in their grapes to produce wine together. This seems to be pretty common.
Les Vignerons D’Estezargues is a Southern Rhone cooperative of ten vineyards. What sets them apart is that instead of putting all their grapes in to one batch. They select the best grapes for special cuvees and use the remainder in their lower end wine. All the wines are made with care and made with natural processes.
