The Domaine is best-known for its range of red and white Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du-Pape wines, but has also expanded its portfolio with the addition of several C\u00f4tes du Rh\u00f4ne and C\u00f4tes du Rhone Villages Signargues wines.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Nunito; font-size: 10pt;\">The Domaine&#8217;s principal wine of Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du-Pape, Cuv\u00e9e Tradition, is predominantly made from Grenache, with Syrah, Mourv\u00e8dre and other grape varieties including Cinsaut, Counoise, Terret and Muscardin making up the remainder of the blend. The grapes are harvested by hand from vines averaging 45 years old and are destemmed and macerated with their skins for approximately 18-24 days. Each grape variety is vinified separately in a range of different oak vessels, from <em>foudres<\/em>\u00a0(large old barrels) and\u00a0<em>f\u00fbts<\/em>\u00a0(smaller oak barrels). The same process is used for the Cuv\u00e9e Etienne Gonnet Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du-Pape.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Nunito; font-size: 10pt;\">Outside of the flagship vineyards in Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du-Pape, Font de Michelle has a 20-ha (49-acre) property in Domazan in the Signargues village \u2013 La Font du Vent. These vineyards are planted to Grenache, Syrah, Cinsaut and Carignan, which form the basis of the estate&#8217;s C\u00f4tes du Rh\u00f4ne and and C\u00f4tes du Rhone Villages Signargues offerings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Nunito; font-size: 10pt;\">Founder Etienne Gonnet established the 30-hectare (74-acre) Domaine in 1950. His two sons, Jean and Michel, took over in 1975 and in turn passed their responsibilities on to their own children, Bertrand and Guillaume. The Gonnet family has also established Gonnet P\u00e8res et Fils to distribute its Domaine Font de Michelle and La Font du Vent wines, as well as Rh\u00f4ne Valley wines from a selection of winegrowers in the region.<\/span><\/p>\n<span style=\"font-family: Nunito; font-size: 10pt;\">You can taste the knowledge, history and patience that has been poured into this wine.<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3845 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ebottli.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/4057757430_19ffe3c25b_3k-scaled.jpg-3-165x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"165\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ebottli.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/4057757430_19ffe3c25b_3k-scaled.jpg-3-165x300.jpg 165w, https:\/\/ebottli.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/4057757430_19ffe3c25b_3k-scaled.jpg-3-564x1024.jpg 564w, https:\/\/ebottli.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/4057757430_19ffe3c25b_3k-scaled.jpg-3-768x1395.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ebottli.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/4057757430_19ffe3c25b_3k-scaled.jpg-3.jpg 780w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 165px) 100vw, 165px\" \/><\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px; user-select: text; -webkit-user-drag: none; -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; overflow: visible; cursor: text; clear: both; position: relative; direction: ltr; color: #000000; font-family: 'Segoe UI', 'Segoe UI Web', Arial, Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;\"><span style=\"font-family: Nunito; font-size: 10pt;\">Enjoy a Domaine Font de Michelle\u00a0wine today!<\/span><\/div>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by Pauline Romeo Domaine Font de Michelle is a French wine producer based in Ch\u00e2teauneuf-du-Pape.
