Sebastian Vicente helms the purposeful Domaine de Fondrèche, which was founded in 1991. Located in Mont Ventoux, an area famous for the Tour de France, Sebastian continues the estate’s laser focus on preserving the vineyards and land that they own. Their goal has always been to minimize their impact to the environment, and they do so with zero use of herbicides, and an emphasis on using green fertilizers like various plants.

Tasting Notes: Pure and intense perfumed notes open quickly – black raspberries, blackberries, and fresh florals. Luscious fruits are tamed with a touch of smoky minerality with a long finish.

Serve With: Drink with roasted game, grilled meats and cured meats.

Brought up in foudre and concrete, the 2023 Ventoux Domaine is deep ruby/purple-hued and has a brilliant perfume of peppery red and blackberries, pepper, creamy flowers, and smoked meats. Based on 60% Grenache, 30% Syrah, and 10% Mourvèdre, it's medium-bodied and has a pure, layered, focused mouthfeel, fine tannins, and a great finish. It has incredibly well-integrated oak and is going to evolve gracefully over the coming 10-15 years. There are roughly 3,300 cases produced. Drink 2025-2038.
