Patrick Mourlan dislikes bling. He runs his family estate quietly, using organic practices his parents used. Patrick remembers when his grandfather would take the family’s grapes to the local cooperative. There is no grand chateau surrounded with palm trees here, even though the Cote d’Azur is just a few miles away. La Bastide des Oliviers is just a few scattered vineyards tucked between fields of wheat and chickpeas. The grapes are a melange of Cinsault, Grenache, and Carignan, among others. The simple, no frills approach Patrick takes produces far more interesting wines than most of his luxury-focused neighbors.
