A very original white from this famous red wine region. Full-bodied, exploding with floral and mineral notes, a hint of tropical fruit and a very long, lingering finish. A really unique and exceptional wine.
Less well-known than the red, the white Vacqueyras is just as worthy of a visit. Fleurantine exudes fruity, floral aromas. Domaine la Fourmone produces a subtle, delicate, mineral white wine, typical of the terroir on the Vacqueyras plateau. Best served with seafood.
While the Fourmone family founded what was initially a farmhouse, the estate has been managed since 1910 by the Combe family. The wines of the Domaine flourish between two prestigious and internationally renowned appellations, Vacqueyras and Gigondas, their vineyard stretches across 37 hectares including 8 grape varieties. They have been practicing organic farming since 2019, aiming to sustain soil life without synthetic pesticides and herbicides, as the family believes in the balance and coherence of this agriculture system.
