Description
The Fondreche Ventoux Blanc is a fresh, aromatic white wine that is a luminous straw-yellow colour with subtle green tinges. The nose is expressive and elegant, showing layers of white peach, pear, citrus zest, and floral notes like honeysuckle and acacia. There’s a mineral edge that reflects the limestone-rich soils and a hint of spice, adding complexity. On the palate, it is clean, medium-bodied, and finely textured. The wine balances vibrant acidity with a smooth, slightly creamy mouthfeel, resulting in a harmonious and refreshing profile.
Sébastien Vincenti of Domaine de Fondrèche is widely recognised as being one of the two best producers in Ventoux yet he keeps a reasonable pricing policy despite his ever-increasing reputation and growing international demand.
His wines from his 38ha domaine are very polished and seductive, yet he always aims to improve his technique. Sébastien is moving to organic culture and uses specific canopy management in order to produce ripe rich wines, with an overall harmony being the key. This estate follows environmentally conscientious philosophies, with discipline and rigour aimed at a low-interventionist approach.

2024 Villa Wolf Gewurztraminer, Pfalz
Gewurztraminer
The Villa Wolf Gewurztraminer is clear, fruity and wonderfully light. It shows the aromatic charm typical of the grape with a delicious juicy texture and a delicate aroma of spices, exotic fruits and fresh roses. To maintain a lively balance in the wine, the fruit is harvested when it is perfectly ripe but not overripe. This wonderful wine is consistently one of our best-selling Gewuztraminers.

2022/23 Carte d’Or, Baumard, AC Coteaux du Layon, Half Bottle
Chenin Blanc
The Carte d'Or Coteaux du Layon from Baumard has a very attractive honeyed nose, with lifted yellow fruits and more golden tropical elements such as mango, guava and pineapple. It has a particularly tropical character and a very fresh feel on the palate, with steely minerality and a zippy background acidity giving invigorating tartness to keep the wine luscious and buoyant. The rounded, approachable finish has good length.
