Vineyard and Winery

The soils are formed from the old bed of the Rhône river and are quaternary terrace, with a surface of shingles. The grapes are carefully selected during the harvesting. Compulsory to obtain the Appellation, this sorting allows the winemaker to have the best bunches of grapes to make the best possible wine. The Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation produces wines that are blends of different grape varieties, therefore, vinification depends on the component grapes and their varietals. Traditional vinification is carried out in closed concrete tanks. The vatting period usually lasts for around 3 weeks, at high temperature to ensure the maximum extraction of colour and tannins.
