Located in the foothills of Mont Ventoux lies the one of the top producers in the Ventoux region of the Rhone - Domaine de Fondreche. Vigneron Sebastien Vincenti took over the winemaking from his mother in 2005. With an eye toward biodiversity and using organic and biodynamic practices for many years, Fondreche was recently certified organic in 2022. The winery sits on a plateau comprised of alluvial soils (predominantly clay and gravel) with a sliver of Silex (AKA flint). The fruit for the rosé comes from vines on the sandier siltier soils just below the plateau. This cooler soil helps yield fresher brighter rosés. The 2023 rosé is comprised of 50% Cinsault, 30% Syrah and 20% Grenache from vines averaging 35 years-old. Fermented with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel tank it is then aged for 6 months in concrete tank on the lees before release.
