Domaine de la Patience
2025 Domaine de la Patience White 750ml
One of the very first producers that importer Jenny & Francios worked with, Domaine de la Patience derives its name from an herb (La Patience) that grows throughout their vineyards in Southern France, just East of Nîmes. Bright and aromatic, this wine opens with delicate floral notes and hints of tart orchard fruit, leading to melon and peach flavors on a silky palate, balanced by lively acidity and a touch of fresh minerality.

Domaine de la Patience
In 1998, Christophe Aguilar took over from his father after years working in a nearby cooperative, then converted the vineyards to organic farming in 2007. He simplified the cellar work and cut additives, aiming to let healthy fruit do the talking.
Today the domaine farms about 247 acres across Costières de Nîmes and Coteaux du Pont du Gard, certified organic, and supplements its own fruit with grapes from nearby sustainable growers when a cuvée calls for it. In the cellar he uses concrete and stainless steel, neutral or indigenous yeast as the wine requires, light filtration, and as little sulfur as possible.
