Peter Sichel (of the Bordeaux négociant family) first discovered the valley of Cucugnan on a road trip with a friend in the 1960s. He was so spellbound by the place that he bought a house there and, in 1988, planted a vineyard. The project grew, albeit slowly, but the arrival of Peter’s thoughtful and environmentally inspired grandson, Alexander Sichel, has turned the Domaine Peter Sichel project completely around.

This single vineyard wine is a pure expression of 100% Syrah, cultivated at an altitude of 350m in the Coteaux de Montagnes, with clay-limestone soils.

With organic viticulture in progress toward biodynamic certification, the grapes were hand-harvested on September 15, 2022, and underwent a gentle vinification with 40% whole berry fermentation with indigenous yeasts, and was aged for 12 months in 500L barrels. 

Its clean, expressive nose bursts with aromas of red fruits and wild strawberries, while the palate reveals a fine, elegant structure with impressive length and a beautifully rounded mouthfeel that balances freshness and slight toasty notes. Perfectly paired with rib of beef or spicy dishes, this Syrah promises delightful surprises with age.

This single vineyard wonder showcases 100% Roussanne, sourced from 80-year-old vines thriving at an altitude of 500m on the Termenès terroir, where clay and marl soils blend harmoniously. With the Mediterranean climate cooling under its altitude and a hint of Atlantic influence, the grapes were meticulously hand-harvested on September 15, 2023, then gently pressed and fermented using indigenous yeasts—half in terracotta amphorae, half in 500L barrels—for approximately 20 days.

After a nine-month aging process, this exceptional vintage emerges, adorned in pale yellow with light green highlights. It offers a clean, expressive nose of white flowers and subtle citrus notes, while its intricate minerality and vibrant acidity provide a lively yet elegant structure. It pairs wonderfully with seafood, refined dishes, and Tommes cheese. This wine not only delights in its youth but also promises lovely surprises with age.
