Tour a vineyard of Merlot grapes with one of the owners, who will discuss the challenges of earning an organic wine certification and offer you a sampling of wines paired with tapas. Nathalie Escuerdo will be your host and explain how she and her husband, Jerome, who manages the vineyard, have earned an official organic wine certification for their vineyard, Château de Boutinet. You will also learn that they only produce three wines, all of them made entirely from Merlot grapes. The namesake Château Boutinet is a Merlot aged in stainless-steel vats, while the Thalie de Boutinet is aged for up to 15 months in oak barrels. It is named for Thalie, the Greek muse of comedy and idyllic poetry. Thalie also happens to be Nathalie’s nickname. The third wine is Le Chairet de Boutinet, a fruity fresh claret. You will have the opportunity to sample the three wines, which will be thoughtfully paired with tapas.
