“EVERYTHING destined me for vines and wine.”
DOMAINE FONTAVIN is the culmination of a beautiful family story woven over the centuries, in Courthézon in the southern Rhône Valley…
Hélène Chouvet Coton, heir to the seventh generation, seemed destined to continue this winemaking adventure. An oenologist, she surveys her 45-hectare vineyard spread across eight communes, overseeing magnificent terroirs with legendary appellations: Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas, Vacqueyras, Muscat de Beaumes-de-Venise, Côtes-du-Rhône…
But beyond tradition, she breathes a new soul. Attentive to the whispers of the earth, she lets nature guide her hand. In 2012, organic farming became a natural choice. Ambitious and measured, vibrant and humble, Hélène creates a unique signature: here, innovation isn’t found in technology, but in the strength of human connection.
The wines are growing in power and renown. Each bottle becomes a journey through time, a moment suspended between past and future generations.
DOMAINE FONTAVIN enhances the terroir, respects the living, and forges wines of freedom, combining the robustness of old vines with the brilliance of fruit.
