Fondation de la Mer 2017

Winemaker Xavier Vignon launched this cuvee with €1 being donated to the Fondation de la Mer for each bottle sold. The charity aims to protect marine ecosystems and they have already raised over €12,000. Beyond this superb initiative, it is a cuvée that takes into consideration the expectations of the most demanding palates on top of considering future generations. The bottle is deliciously spicy, has floral aromas, but also gourmet notes that open as you taste to reveal fruits such as blueberry and black cherry.

For the last 15 years, winemaker Xavier Vignon has become internationally known for being the winemaker of several of the best domains in the Rhône. Known as a ‘master blender’, he creates and blends Rhône wines with different vintages and appellations from around the Languedoc. Xavier sources fruit from vineyards which are only sustainably managed, producing fruit of the highest quality. These wines are non-vintage, made from the highest quality fruit sourced from across the region and vinified in 2007, 2009 and 2010, some of the best vintages in Southern France.
