Check out Chateauneuf du Pape from the other side of the hill — Anne Charlotte Melia-Bachas explains why the wines of Font du Loup are so unique

I love wines from the Chateauneuf appellation – located in the Southern Rhone region of France – and until this interview, I thought I knew just about everything there was to know about this wonderful and storied wine region – that is until I met Anne Charlotte Melia-Bachas who showed me what lies on the “other side of the mountain.” Find out what happens on the other side of La Crau, where wild Mistral winds howl and elegance reigns supreme. I invite you to drink in this entertaining episode with Anne Charlotte.
