Terroir

A century-old terroir of great diversity: rolled pebbles (quartzites), clay, sand, limestone. The work of the soil is imposing, the natural care brought, and the very meticulous preparations. A domain definitely apart in Châteauneuf-du-Pape.

Winemaking

The malolactic fermentation is stunned in order to give the wine as much freshness as possible. The wine is then subjected to a long ageing process in concrete vats and oak barrels. It is fined and bottled without filtration.

Tasting

Very confidential!
This great white Châteauneuf du Pape is produced in exceptionally exclusive quantities. Astonishing in strength and depth, the wine is direct, precise and fresh. The very greedy nose is characterized by aromas of fresh citrus fruits, honey and white flowers. The palate is full-bodied, rich and fat, but never heavy. It is a very elegant wine with a finish characterized by refinement. An immediate pleasure that retains great ageing potential. A hard to find vintage!
