Domaine Crève-Cœur Côtes du Rhône Villages Rouge Seguret

Nestled high in the village of Séguret, you'll find Pablo Höcht’s Domaine, an idyllic spot perched in the Dentelles de Montmirail, full of Provençal charm. To reach Pablo’s little paradise, you must follow a dirt road until the very end. His German parents, both artists, moved to the region in the 1970s when his father received a grant to paint the landscapes of Provence. Pablo carries on that artistic legacy, using a different painting on his wine labels every year. Sometimes, his winery even doubles as a gallery.

Since arriving in 2010, Pablo has embraced organic and biodynamic farming, all while serving as Maître de Chais at Château St. Cosme. His 7-hectare property spans Sablet and Séguret, with vineyards on both hillsides and plains. Pablo’s wines stand out for their honesty, refreshment, and thirst-quenching quality—not your typical bold Southern Rhône Grenache-based wines. Instead, like the place they come from, they are bursting with energy and freshness.

The vineyards, with an average vine age of 50 years, are planted in sandy and rocky soils on limestone at an altitude of 300 meters. The domaine covers 2 hectares of the plateau in Séguret, producing around 3,500 bottles. The blend consists of 60% Grenache, 30% Mourvèdre, and 10% Syrah. Fermentation takes place in cement vats with minimal extraction, and the wines are aged in old oak barrels, allowing them to develop their vibrant character.
