The domain's short story
The Domaine de Verquière is located in Sablet, a welcoming and generous land that produces red wines with a rich and powerful bouquet. The winemaker cultivates four main grape varieties: Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault and Mourvèdre, on a golden soil! On this terroir that Thibault respects and protects, a dozen vintages are worked in the Côtes du Rhône Villages Sablet and Rasteau appellations. The wines are round, fruity, sometimes complex: we can see the winemaker's touch. Since 2011, Thibault has been converting to organic farming and was certified three years later. For more than 4 generations, the family estate has been passed down from father to son in Sablet. Today, it is Thibault who is at the head of the estate, ensuring the development of the Rhone Valley estate along the lines described by his father. For Thibault, winemaking is a profession-passion: the winemaker decided to convert his vineyard to organic farming and obtained the label in 2014. Flashback: it is Edmond, Thibault's great-grandfather, who bought the buildings on the estate when he was young. After some renovations, he gave a new lease of life to the estate and sold his juices to the most renowned merchants in the region. Louis, Chamfort's grandfather, starts to market the wines in bottles and enlarges the property, Verquière makes a name for itself. Bernard, Thibault's father, developed international sales, the turning point was reached!
