Light ruby in colour with lifted aromas of ripe raspberry, cherry, stewed black fruits, and a touch of wild herbs and spice typical of Grenache-led blends. On the palate, this Châteauneuf-du-Pape is medium-bodied and elegant, with layers of juicy red berries, subtle spice, and fine, supple tannins. There’s a lovely sense of freshness running through it, leading to a smooth, persistent finish with a savoury twist. A refined yet characterful expression of Southern Rhône winemaking, with both immediate charm and short-term ageing potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTop food pairings:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoast lamb with rosemary and garlic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDuck breast with a cherry glaze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlow-cooked Provençal vegetable dishes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eKate Says\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"This feels like proper, old-school Châteauneuf – elegant, layered, and quietly complex.

Farming around 23 acres split across 26 parcels, he works with a patchwork of soils, elevations, and exposures, many planted as traditional field blends including all 13 permitted grape varieties. This diversity allows him to craft authentic, old-school Châteauneuf-du-Pape wines that reflect both heritage and terroir. The vineyards are cultivated without herbicides, and all fruit is hand-harvested to preserve quality and character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it’s made:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVarieties: 85% Grenache with a field blend of 12 other authorised Châteauneuf-du-Pape varieties\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-harvested from three centenarian parcels planted between 1890 and 1906\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrown on a mix of limestone-clay, galets roulés over sandy red clay, and classic Rhône clay soils\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraditional vinification in the family’s cellar to preserve terroir expression\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAged in one of Jérôme’s oldest oak foudres for 14–16 months\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGood to know:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhône, France\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Red, still, medium-bodied\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVegan:\u003c\/strong\u003e No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15.5%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2023\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy we love it:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003eChâteauneuf-du-Pape red wine\u003c\/strong\u003e captures the essence of traditional Southern Rhône winemaking, blending old-vine Grenache with a full field blend for depth and complexity.
