One of the most fascinating and fun stories is that of erstwhile dairyman Joe Ginet, who was inspired to enter the wine industry because of his ancestral ties to Mondeuse – an obscure grape in his native Savoie region of France. These three barrels of this wine serve as the signature for this Southern Oregon grower/winemaker, and it comes across with a theme of blueberry, black currant and lavender with intense tannins, pomegranate acidity and a juicy finish with Swisher Sweet tobacco.
