About Winery and Wines
In the heart of the Rhône Valley, at the southern gateway to the Gorges de l'Ardèche, where the garrigue alternates with the sunny hillsides of the Rhône, lies Domaine de la Croix Blanche. As a result of a long family tradition, 26 hectares of vineyards are cultivated using organic farming methods. Living by the rhythm of the vines, we have always worked to preserve the environment in which we operate, respecting the vines, the soil and the rhythm of the seasons.
With a solid background in oenology, Guillaume Archambault took over the reins of the family domaine, created by his great-grandparents, in 2012. "My great-grandfather owned 15 hectares of vines in the commune of Bourg-Saint-Andéol, and my grandmother had a vineyard here in Saint-Martin d'Ardèche," explains Guillaume. From their union was born Domaine de la Croix Blanche, named after his great-grandfather's farm. As for her, Laurene grew up at the very heart of the estate, immersed from childhood in the intoxicating atmosphere of winegrowing. In 2019, she joins her brother to contribute to the development and renown of the estate, in particular by taking care of wine sales and marketing. Both will offer you a warm welcome, sharing anecdotes about the estate's history and winemaking techniques, so that you can discover the emblematic cuvées and the diversity of the estate's wines!
Join Laurène and Guillaume on their estate, where family heritage and passion for wine blend harmoniously.
Based in the village of Saint-Martin d'Ardèche, the estate produces organic white, rosé and red AOP Côtes du Rhône, Côtes du Rhône Villages Saint-Andéol and IGP Coteaux de l'Ardèche wines, as well as organic olive oil. Organic certification was officially introduced for the entire estate in 2012, but our philosophy has always been one of sustainable agriculture.
The domaine offers a wide range of cuvées, from fruity Coteaux de l'Ardèche wines to aromatic Côtes du Rhône aged in oak barrels. The team at the domaine will be delighted to help you discover the typicity of each vintage and the passion that has driven their family for 4 generations. Join Laurène and Guillaume on their estate, where family heritage and passion for wine blend harmoniously.
