The wines are then bottled without fining or filtration. This cuvée offers aromas of violet and honeysuckle. The palate is characterised by spicy notes and great freshness.

    Information about domain Les 4 vents (anciennement Domaine de Lucie)

    Domaine les 4 Vents - formerly Domaine de Lucie - lies in Mercurol in the heart of the Crozes-Hermitage appellation. Lucie Fourel moved here in 2006, not far from her parents who supplied grapes to the Cave at Tain l'Hermitage. She converted her 4-hectare vineyard to organic in 2007 but didn't release her first vintage until 2010 (until then she supplied a cooperative). Lucie's sister, Nancy, joined her in 2013 and when their parents retired in 2015 they took over their 6 hectare vineyard and renamed the business Domaine les 4 Vents. The property is fully certified as organic and the wines are made with indigenous yeasts and no additives. This very interesting domain is definitely one to watch!
