After touring the United States, Australia and New Zealand, Olivier Legranger from Axon will return to France in 2014 with the aim of creating his estate in the southern Rhône Valley. In the course of 2016, he succeeded in acquiring 10 hectares of vines on the Ventoux appellation as a young farmer. He makes it a vineyard he will call the Domaine du Colibri, in reference to the hummingbird, Native American legend that teaches us that rather than doing nothing, we can act on his scale. (The caption: One day there was a huge forest fire.) All terrified animals, aghast, watched the disaster helplessly, only the hummingbird was busy, fetching a few drops with its beak to throw them on the fire. for a moment the armadillo, annoyed by this derisory agitation, said to him, “Hummingbird, you are not mad, it is not with these drops of water that you will extinguish the fire!” And the hummingbird answered him: “I know it, but I’m doing my part.”).
Directly selling his various local products made in his domain, Olivier Legranger travels to Caromb, Carpentras and Monteux to make known these five vintages of AOC Ventoux wine, local products such as honey, beer, Champagne, tapenade and olive oil produced in the Domaine du Colibri.
