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.

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.

2024 Sancerre Croq Caillotte, Domaine Emile Balland

The Sancerre Croq Caillotte is a classic example of how it pays dividends to seek out the smaller growers, as this is a top notch, characterful Sancerre showing citrus and apple fruit, perfectly poised minerality and mouth-watering acidity. Classy and offers terrific value for money.

Pinot Noir
Fournillon have 23 hectares of vines in Chablis in the cool, north of burgundy and are predominantly producers of classic, steely Chablis (see our fantastic value 'house' Chablis), but they also produce some red and this delicious cremant from 100% Pinot Noir. All fruit is hand-harvested and vinified carefully to produce an easy drinking, fruit-forward fizz that is well balanced and nicely rounded with a fine mousse. Excellent as an apertif.
