No more Aureto Tramontane (2011) in la cave

Shortly after this IGP Vaucluse red wine received a “Commended” nod from the 2014 Decanter World Wine Awards—adding to its other awards—Cave Aureto’s bins are bare, as of the first week in August. (We have thoroughly enjoyed the 2010 cuvée on several occasions, both in the tasting room and around the table.) The other 2014 Decanter award-winning wine—Aureto Petit Miracle Red (2012) AOP Luberon, which snagged a Bronze award—is still in stock at the Cave. Hardly a consolation prize. It looks like a persevering oenophile might still be able to nab both in Switzerland, native home of the current owners of Cave Aureto. Price tags hover just above $20 US.
