After having spent 20 years on the Belgian wine market, mainly as a buyer, and being more than ever devoured by passion, with as only heritage the love for the beautiful, the passion for quality and the gluttony of an hedonistic father, Jean-Paul Fontaine decided, after several vinifications in Burgundy and Languedoc, to create an equitable high quality « Négoce » activity in the Languedoc-Roussillon area with the aim of elaborating gourmet wines revealing the identity of the region’s best terroirs and faithful to the spirit and the pleasure their greatest wines can bring. Rigorous selection of terroirs, partners and parcels according to criteria which respect all aspects allowing the production of fine wines. Looking for depth, finesse, delicacy and elegance he gives priority to soft vinifications with smooth extractions and moderate use of oak, followed by a very meticulous work of blending and aging.
