Fondreche 2022 Persia Ventoux Blanc 750ml

This wine is made from 100% old vine Roussanne and is fermented in barrel and aged in concrete before bottling.  In the glass this wine is clear with bright green reflections around the rim.  Th nose is redolent with white stone fruits, white flowers and a touch of honey.  The mouthfeel is rich but surprisingly fresh with a hint of saline.  This wine can be enjoyed now or cellared for 5 to 7 years.

***

One of the consistently superb estates in the Cotes du Ventoux, Domaine de Fondreche offers very high quality and reasonable prices. The creation of Sebastian Vincenti and Manou Barthelemy, these wines are bursting with fruit and have loads of minerality and aromatics. They are beautiful efforts representing the best of what a young generation of French producers can do. The estate is just under 100 acres in size and is now 100% biodynamically farmed.
