Do you know the appellation Vin de Pays du Vaucluse?
This appellation accounts for a small part of French wine production and is generally of a lower quality than IGPs and AOPs.

This Domaine Le Van Secret de Juliette 2016 is a great example.
Let’s have a taste!

This helped me evolve, both personally and professionally. I’ve been able to check in with myself and implement some stuff that are more aligned with who I am now, who I want to become and what I want to achieve.
That’s why I entirely redesigned my blog last year to offer you a better experience. And that’s why I’m still working on several projects to help you achieve your goals in life…
