Domaine de Fenouillet
Domaine de Fenouillet produces wines from Languedoc, the sprawling southern French region known for bold, sun-ripened reds built on Grenache, Syrah, and Carignan. The winery's flagship, Le Père la Minute Faugères, blends Syrah and Grenache into a wine that has drawn attention from Wine Advocate and Decanter. Extraits de Schistes Faugères, a three-grape blend anchored in Carignan with Syrah and Grenache, reflects the schist-rich terroir of the Faugères appellation. The portfolio extends to Faugères Rosé, a dry expression of Grenache and Syrah. These wines sit at the intersection of Languedoc's rustic character and the precision demanded by serious critics—structured, mineral-driven, and rooted in the region's distinctive slate soils.
