Domaine de l'Amandine

What Domaine de l'Amandine does

Domaine de l'Amandine is a family-owned winery operating 35 hectares of organically farmed vineyards in the AOC Côtes du Rhône Villages Séguret appellation in Provence, France. Founded in 1968 by Jean-Pierre Verdeau and now in its fourth generation under Mathilde Suter (joined 2015) alongside her parents Sabine and Alex Suter (joined 2013), the estate produces a portfolio of eight wines across the Côtes du Rhône, Côtes du Rhône Villages Séguret, and Vin de Pays Vaucluse appellations, including reds, whites, and a rosé, with notable cuvées emblematic of distinct terroir parcels such as 'La Montagne' at 300m altitude and 'Saint Véran' on the Ouvèze alluvial plain. Production is certified Organic Agriculture (AB) since 2020 with parallel Haute Valeur Environnementale (HVE) certification since 2018, and quality has been recognized by a 95/100 rating from the 2023 Decanter World Wine Awards and multiple gold medals at French competitions.

The business runs a hybrid go-to-market model. B2B distribution is sold via per-contract terms to national and international wine merchants and negociants, priced EXW Séguret in EUR HT under ICC 2010 Incoterms. Direct-to-consumer revenue is generated through on-site tastings and wine sales at the estate's tasting room in Séguret (with extensive seasonal hours and a 2022 public-co-funded investment in a Pellenc knife weeder as part of its sustainability program), through a trilingual e-commerce storefront (French, English, Chinese), and through ancillary hospitality offerings that include Provençal cooking classes led by Sabine Suter and a two-person gîte at the Grange Vieille vineyard. The company is privately held by the Suter-Verdeau family with no external investors, no subsidiaries, and no disclosed financial figures.
