In March 2000, Raphael Trouiller founded Domaine Cascavel in the Côtes du Ventoux appellation. Ownership and management of the domaine have since passed to Xavier Logette. A total of 9.5 hectares of vineyards are divided into 14 small plots and are planted with 25- to 60-year-old vines. Everything is grown purely organically to produce wines that are true to the terroir and have the soul of the south. Raphael’s oenologist Didier Robert, who is the tutor and boss of none other than Philippe Cambie. Despite an interim change of ownership, Didier has been cellar master at Cascavel continuously for 18 years. In Côtes du Ventoux, the grapes ripen significantly later than in the warmer Rhône valley, the wines are fresher and more differentiated, but still have the velvety warmth characteristic of the region. Like the entire Ventoux region, the winery led by Xavier Logette and his highly experienced winemaker Didier has been on a qualitative upswing for years, producing brilliant wines from the somewhat fresher terroirs on the Ventoux, which marks the geographical transition from the Rhône valley to Provence.
