Family experience in Cognac and Bordeaux, all come together at Pym-Rae Napa Valley. Located on Mt. Veeder at Robin Williams former estate, Pym-Rae is the single red made by the Tesseron family. Noé Tesseron visited the LBTV studio while on a tour of the US to promote the first vintage of this very special wine. This is not the first time Bordeaux has come to Napa to make wine but to be sure any serious wine collector will surely seek out this small production wine. Noé has a very different take on wine pairing for you, so we suggest you tune in and turn it up.
