Coup de Foudre is a common French idiomatic expression that is defined as a lightning strike, something unforgettable, a ālove at first sightā, it can be referred to food, wine or someone incredible.
For the past 30 years, the winery has had the great fortune and honor to work with wine, savor it, and witness its impact on consumers as they navigate the wonders of wine and the sheer pleasure that it brings.
We have watched many people commemorate special times in their lives with wine. A few years ago, we embarked on our path to create a unique wine with elements worthy of a Coup de Foudre.
