The Story: Wine has been made in Domaine de Font-Sane since 1860, and the estate is proud to be one of Gigondas' foremost producers. With an approach that marries tradition with contemporary winemaking knowledge, the estate is currently run by Véronique and Bernard Cunty, as well as their son Romain. Together, they have a deep knowledge of the terroir and take great pride in producing wine which honors the region's legacy but with a nod towards modern taste.

Why You’ll Love Me: This CdR blend pours a beautiful purple color with a rich, intense nose ripe with black fruit, pepper and violet. A smooth, rounded mouthfeel gives way to an elegantly silky finish, making this an exceptionally approachable wine.
