Anne Pichon and her late husband, Marc Pichon, started an agrarian-bohemian life together in the 1990s when they moved into an abandoned farm house at the base of Mont Ventoux. They began to resurrect a defunct domaine called Murmurium, meaning “the buzzing song of bees.” And while the 38- acre vineyard was in poor shape, the site was properly organic for many years leading up to Anne and Marc’s stewardship. Sadly, Marc died in a car accident a few years ago, but the winery remains very much a going concern.Today, Anne produces no more than 40 barrels of wine, along with her sister-in-law Véronique who manages the commercial affairs. The wines themselves are named “Sauvage” inspired by the Pichons’ respect for and attachment to nature. This is Anne’s orange wine, a 70/30 blend of Roussanne and Sauvignon Blanc left on the skins for five days; it offers ripe stone fruit notes along with crisp acidity, tangy citrus peel and a subtle fino sherry note, making for a balanced, extraordinary orange wine.
