DOMAINE FOND CROZE

Rasteau 2022

Located in the heart of the southern Rhône Valley, Domaine Fond Croze is a testament to four generations of viticultural passion. The estate’s history began in 1918 when Charles Long returned from World War I and began acquiring land. His son, Raymond, expanded the holdings, but it was the third generation that truly defined the brand, with brothers Daniel and Bruno Long establishing the commercial domain in 1997. Today, Bruno serves as the talented winemaker, combining a deep respect for tradition with modern environmental stewardship. Under his guidance, the 70-hectare estate transitioned to certified organic farming in 2009. Bruno’s philosophy focuses on crafting “honest and unpretentious” wines that authentically reflect the argilo-calcareous soils of the region, ensuring each bottle captures the vibrant spirit of the Vaucluse.
