Vineyard
Rosé Domaine de Ponfract is originated in the plots of vineyard surrounded by the amphitheater-like hills formed during the Jurassic Period: calcareous earth with numerous fragments of high porosity tuff, low soil density that allows the vines to rapidly soak up the early morning sunlight. The 20 ha vineyard is been owned by the same family for more then 3 centuries .
