The castle’s role in history was strategic; the Rhône River was the border between the French Kingdom and the Holy Roman German Empire. Montfaucon was one of a line of castles and fortresses along the Rhône River constructed to guard the border, and later to tax ships carrying goods up and down the River. The castle was damaged during the religious wars in the 16th century. The de Pertuis family, our ancestors, had come to Avignon from Piemonte in Italy following the Popes. They acquired the Chateau de Montfaucon in 1766. Thus Joseph Gabriel de Pertuis became the Baron de Montfaucon. Joseph Gabriel’s son, Eugene, served as Mayor of Avignon and member of the parliament from 1826 to 1830. He married a Scottish lady, Agatha Clavering. They had a son named Louis, Baron Louis de Montfaucon, and a daughter, Wilhelmine. From 1936 to 1995 the family continued to cultivate the vines but sold the grapes to a co-operative. This has allowed us to inherit beautiful old vines of Grenache, Carignan, Cinsault and Counoise that are up to 90 years old.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2024-03-14T17:44:39-04:00","created_at":"2024-03-12T14:48:24-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","NK120324","Other_Wine","Producer_Chateau de Montfaucon","Region_Rhone","Source_VendorEmail0324","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Southern Rhone Red Blend"],"price":4690000,"price_min":4690000,"price_max":4690000,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44476713599114,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2018 | Chateau de Montfaucon | Lirac Baron Louis","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":4690000,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/52_3290ccd1-5103-46b9-9d46-925ab1a71f39.jpg?v=1710269368"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/52_3290ccd1-5103-46b9-9d46-925ab1a71f39.jpg?v=1710269368","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2018 | Chateau de Montfaucon | Lirac Baron Louis at CaskCartel.com","id":26457208586378,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.417,"height":540,"width":225,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/52_3290ccd1-5103-46b9-9d46-925ab1a71f39.jpg?v=1710269368"},"aspect_ratio":0.417,"height":540,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/52_3290ccd1-5103-46b9-9d46-925ab1a71f39.jpg?v=1710269368","width":225}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2018 | Chateau de Montfaucon | Lirac Baron Louis\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt presents itself with great elegance and charm with precise aromas, imposing but very fine tannins and great length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Chateau de Montfaucon\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2018\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Southern Rhone Red Blend\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e France, Rhone\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt presents itself with great elegance and charm with precise aromas, imposing but very fine tannins and great length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eProducer Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\nThe history of Chateau de Montfaucon dates back to the 11th century when the castle’s first tower was built.
