Domaine de l'Amandine

Alex Sutter

Domaine de l’Amandine (translates into almonds) is the product of a traditional, family run vineyard laid out on the terraces and foothills surrounding the village of Séguret. Nestling in the southern Rhône valley, it is classed as one of France’s prettiest villages, between Mont Ventoux and the Dentelles de Montmirail.

The owners, Jean-Pierre Verdeau, along with his  son-in-law, Alex Suter are personally involved at every stage of the wine’s making.  It is in the vineyard that their quest begins to create wines that are authentic, unique and an expression of the local terroir. The 120 acre vineyards are supervised entirely by the family, using traditional methods that have been handed down the generations.  Harvesting grapes from vines averaging over 50 years old, their care and attention to detail is second to none.

The dynasty continues with the addition of Alex’s daughter, Mathilde in a sales and marketing role continuing the family tradition that is over a century old.
