Vindemio's vineyard was founded on the precepts of its terroir and environment, in islands, in order to protect the ecosystem and the complex balance. The fauna and flora live in perfect symbiosis on the plots. On the outskirts of the plots, century-old trees, flower beds and streams protect the plots, like a plant dome that drives away violent winds and keeps the heat away. They are also a screen in front of the neighboring plots.
Presentation
Presentation
At an altitude of 400 meters, at the foot of Mont Ventoux, the first terroir of 8 hectares, in the commune of Mormoiron, has both earth and sky at its heart. In the extreme west of the appellation, in Saint-Hippolyte-le-Graveyron, mirroring the first terroir, facing the Dentelles de Montmirail and Mont Ventoux, 4 hectares flourish in the tranquility of a micro-climate, protected from the wind and extreme temperatures.

Tasting
Caeli means "air" or "sky" in Latin. This wine transports us to the foot of the Mont Ventoux. This cuvée benefits from the maturity of the oldest vines of Vindemio, which, at an altitude of 400m, have dominated the rest of the Ventoux appellation for fifty years. This island of sand and soft rocks is hidden in the middle of fruit trees that enrich the soil of the parcel. An expressive nose, with spicy notes of undergrowth and leather, a warm mouth that confirms the character and finesse of this wine.
Food pairings
Provence lamb fillet and courgette tempura or matured beef with cumin-roasted carrots. Or try it with a tian of summer vegetables.
