Dom Garrabou Fontvieille 2022 is a dry white wine from France's Languedoc, within AOP Limoux Blanc. Its identity is closely tied to one specific site: La Fontvieille, a small parcel of around 0.75 hectares.

The cuvée is built around a clear sense of place: one grape variety, one parcel, one wine. Frédéric Garrabou follows a Burgundian-inspired approach, with hand-harvested grapes, whole bunches, cold pre-fermentation maceration, daily pigeage and maturation on the lees in 500-litre barriques. The oak influence is described as subtle, adding gentle toast and smoky accents rather than taking over the wine.
