For many of the apricots growers in the Northern Rhône Valley, growing apricots is more than a job, it’s a way of life. Most of the orchards have been in families for generations – being passed down over the years along with pride and respect for the land. In 2010, Romain Roudier, managing the family’s farming operation, decided to expand in viticulture. With vineyards in production in 2020, Romain built a cellar from scratch and thus rebranded and started doing business as Domaine Vendome.
