Wine of the Week Profile 06/25/07
2006 Domaine de Fenouillet Côtes du Ventoux Grenache Blend Rosé

2006 Domaine de Fenouillet Côtes du Ventoux Grenache Blend Rosé’06 Domaine de Fenouillet Côtes du Ventoux Grenache Blend Rosé $8.49
The Domaine de Fenouillet is situated in the village of Beaumes de Venise which located near the village of Gigondas and the “Dentelles de Montmirail,” which is located in the very heart of some the finest vineyard sites in the southern Rhône. Fenouillet has been run by the Soard Family for a handful of generations and as recently as ’89 all the grapes harvested by the family were sold to the local cooperative. Vincent and Patrick Soard took over the domaine in ’89 and began to vinify their own grapes and bottle the wines at the estate.

The Fenouillet vineyards are situated at an altitude of 350 meters above sea level on clay and chalk soil. The vines are between thirty and fifty years old. They produce southern Rhône staples: 60% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 10% old vine Mourvèdre and 10% Cinsault.

This Côtes du Ventoux dry rosé is a remarkably multi-dimensional, summertime standout. Delicate and peachy, it offers pretty hints of black cherry and strawberry jam, peaches and cream and blooming rose fragrance. These scents are backed by cherry, peach, and crushed gooseberry flavors; vibrant, grapefruit-laced crispness; a hefty dollop of bright minerality; and a creamy, supple texture. A very flavorful and satisfying rosé at an irresistible price.
