Chemin de Moscou 2021

“Chemin de Moscou” is named after the “Nom Cadastral”(land registry name) of the vineyards around our winery in the village of Brugairolles. The road leading to these vineyards is called “Chemin de Moscou”, the “Road to Moscow”. The local villagers believe the name originated from the place outside the village where meetings were held, under the “L’arbre de Moscou” the “Moscow Tree”. This tree was used as a navigation beacon by pioneers of the Aéropostale service. The tree, an enormous pine, was struck by lightning and burned to the ground over 20 years ago.
