Jean Louis Charmolue knows wine, has
made it his whole life and career and is absolutely passionate on the
subject. He's spent years NOT growing wine on biodynamic principles at
Chateau Montrose and presumably if he's moved bought Chateau Romanin, he has
done so because it's successful and he likes/approves of the way in which it
is grown. It's delicious wine, too! We found it quite by accident when we
had lunch at a restaurant in the Camargue several years ago and then we went
to buy some at the chateau. I haven't seen the Charmolues for years (their
daughter and I used each to be married to two brothers) and didn't realise
they'd taken over Romanin at or around the time we were there. I had a great
surprise when I read a bit more about it a while ago and discovered they'd
bought it.


Their web site is extremely difficult to read. It has the smallest print
of any web site I've encountered! Pity!
