The estate and the wine |
|
|
Named the benchmark for Ventoux by Robert Parker, Domaine de Fondrèche has played a major role in raising the profile of wines from this area, with its cuvées counted among the finest in the southern Rhône Valley.
Grown on cool, limestone-rich soils and farmed organically, these wines are deep and distinctive, reflecting the values of care and precision that are so important to Sébastien Vincenti. |

Vinified without any added sulfur and aged exclusively in concrete vats—with no oak influence—the 2024 Ventoux Red overflows with juicy, beautifully pure fruit aromas and flavors. Grown on a stony terroir combining flint and clay-limestone soils, this wine retains vibrant freshness shaped by the nearby mountains. Dark berry notes and gentle spices lead the way, followed by a focused palate framed by fine tannins. This is a medium-bodied red: fleshy, bright, and precise, stretching out into lingering hints of violet and delicate smoky nuances. A delicious wine you can enjoy now or cellar for another five years. Scored 93/100 by the Selection Committee. |
