Supported by the parents Nanou og Alain Barthélemy, Sebastien Vincenti bought the property in 1991. At that time he had finished his oenological education. The former owner had delivered the grapes to the cooperative and there were no cellars at the estate. 
During 1993-95 Vincenti worked at André Brunel at Les Cailloux in Chateauneuf du Pape. In the cellars here he made the first vintages from Fondrèche.

The domain covers 35 ha. by which 28 ha. are situated around the domain and the rest in Mormoiron. 
The vineyards will be certified agriculture biologique in 2012
