About the wine
Crisp,refreshing and delicious!
- We’ve made $5 million available to help struggling wineries to survive and come out the other side of this Covid crisis. The closure of bars and restaurants across the globe has been a disaster for the independent winemakers who supply them. The little guys, without connections to the big supermarkets, are the ones who are suffering the most.
- Until recently, California girl Jennifer was living the rural French winemaking dream with her husband Didier in the tiny village of Douzens. They've spent the last 20 years making delicious rustic wines from their family-run organic winery. Since Covid hit, it’s been devastating for their small business. Their main customers, a handful of US importers, put their orders on hold indefinitely. And their other main channel, a weekly farmers’ market, has ground to a halt for the past 3 months.
- Crisp, refreshing and delicious are the 3 words that spring to mind when you take your first sip of Jennifer’s bright, aromatic blend of Roussanne and Grenache Gris. It’s bursting with pure juicy white fruits with a joyful citrusy finish.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Jennifer Buck
- 20 years ago, Jennifer moved from California to France to study and teach English. She met a Frenchman called Didier, fell in love, and decided to stick around.
- Jen's husband Didier was born and raised in Douzens, a tiny village in Corbières with a population of 800. He is the son of wine growers, like almost everyone else in the village.
- In 2009 they moved back to Didier's village, where they converted an old barn into a winery. Since then, they've been slowly growing their small family-run organic wine production.
