The Joie de Vivre of French Wine
In the French countryside, wine is an everyday pleasure. A bottle of delicious local red or white wine usually shares the table with a delightfully simple lunch and dinner. Forget white tablecloths and fancy stemware: in the countryside, custom calls for using everyday glasses and gathering around the table casually. With a bottle of French wine, a fresh baguette and a soft wedge of Camembert, you and a few friends just might be able to evoke the rolling, sun-drenched hills of Southern France.
Have you tried Red Bicyclette? This delightful vineyard makes its home in the warm, western-Mediterranean region of Southern France known as Languedoc. Like its neighbor Provence, Languedoc is famous for the good life — excellent food, gorgeous landscape, fine weather, and delicious wines. The majestic Pyrenees protect the vineyards from wind and chill, and the result is a climate ideal for spicy Syrah, rich Merlot, and fruity Chardonnay. Harvested by hand as soon as the grapes hit their peak, the wines of Red Bicyclette are true to their region—rustic, companionable, and full of easy pleasure.
