Terroir Daronton, Ventoux, Rouge, 2024

“Originating from 13 names... those of the thirteen founders who came together and gathered a team of expert winemakers to create a trusted signature for Rhone Valley wines. As a tribute to their work, the name DARONTON was born from a blend of parts of their names.”

2024 has been full of weather challenges. Spring brought disease pressure, summer droughts reduced yields, and heavy rains in September added to the difficulties. Even so, the great quality of the wines reflects the skill, dedication, and great adaptability of our Artisans winegrowers and winemakers.

Light sandy soils, sandstones on sunny slopes and calcareous screes.

Harvest at optimum maturity. Vinification under controlled temperature to extract the best of the fruit.

Short ageing in stainless steel vats at controlled temp. and early bottling.
