"Selection of the estate's finest terroirs and old vines"

"The Ventoux Altineo 2024, the flagship of the range, has a deep purple color and magnificent aromas of red and black fruits reminiscent of Hermitage, smoked meat, pepper, and violet. Composed of 60% Syrah and 40% Grenache, it reveals wonderfully integrated oak, tannins, and acidity, in the pure and elegant style of the estate, and offers a beautiful finish. This is a captivating 2024 from this talented winemaker, which will need 2 to 4 years of bottle aging and will evolve for two decades. Hats off to Sebastian for these two brilliant wines." (Jeb Dunnuck 2025)

About the estate:
