A young and dynamic company, Caves Fonjoya was established in 2018 and takes its name from the Languedoc patois; the Font means fountain, and Joia refers to joy. Representing a mosaic of terroirs in the Languedoc appellations, this vibrant cooperative brings together enterprising vine growers and winemakers united in their commitment to protecting the terroir using sustainable practices. Indeed, the Big Buzz range was born out of the ‘big buzz’ surrounding sustainability, the en-vogue topic of the moment. This vibrant duo of Big Buzz wines, Grenache Blanc and Grenache Noir, come from the stunning IGP Saint-Guilhem-leDesert, and both wines beautifully showcase the terroir and the purity of its fruit.

| Winery | Saint-Guilhem-le-Désert is steeped in history and classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The vineyards are nestled in the foothills of the Séranne and Mont Saint-Baudille, where they are planted alongside the olive trees. The climate is Mediterranean, hot and dry, with the gentle influence of maritime breezes blowing in from the Mediterranean Sea, which has a tempering effect. The soils are clay-limestone, with the clay component offering good water retention properties to help hydrate the vines through the long, dry summers and the limestone component imparting elegance to the wines. The vines are sustainably cultivated, with butterfly sexual confusion employed instead of insecticides. The vines are harvested in the cool of the night to preserve aromatics and the freshness in the grapes. |
