"A multitude of aromas! Pomegranate syrup and fermented coffee beans, raspberries and black cherries cooked into a jam so thick you could cut it into cubes. That's the impression this wine gives on the palate. A sculpture of black fruits shaped into angles and carved into the flesh, introverted, juicy balsamic, with subtle spices barely present. Enjoy it with confit pork chops. Best enjoyed with the fruit. (Jancis Robinson 2023)

About the estate:
Ventoux is welcoming a new chapter in the professional lives of Laurence and Patrick Chêne. This passion project, which dates back some twenty years, is based in an 18th-century farmhouse at the foot of this famous mountain in Vaucluse. With deep-rooted convictions and unwavering faith, this couple, passionate about rural life and Provence, has brought together the region's native grape varieties, which had been too quickly abandoned. Century-old vines, a winery that respects tradition without forgetting innovation, and the expert eye of Jérôme Bressy: the answer is in the glass, relevant and clear-sighted for four vintages. In addition to the usual varieties, a little Cinsault and the fine Counoise complete a successful blend, aged in cement and wood.

Review and opinion by Mr. MATHIEU W. Published on 02/09/2025
Deep ruby color with purple at the core. On the nose, horse stable, chocolate, modest dark fruit. Aromas are somewhat intense, reductive, and atypical. After an hour or two of aeration, the aromas become more accessible. On the palate, ripe dark fruit, blackberries, plums, plum compote, spices, white pepper, but also that horse stable again. Furthermore, lots of substance, enormous tannin structure of fine-grained tannins that will continue to break down. Powerful, masculine wine. A little too intense for me. Score: 15.5/20
