La Vieille Julienne – Vintage 2022 – AOC Chateauneuf du Pape

Estate presentation

Domaine de la Vieille Julienne is one of those Châteauneuf-du-Pape houses with a special aura and remarkable prestige. The estate was created in the 17th century in the Clavin district, nestled at the foot of the northern slopes of the Châteauneuf-du-Pape terraces. Today, Domaine de la Vieille Julienne comprises 20 hectares of old vines. An original feature of the appellation, the entire vineyard is in one piece. The north-facing aspect of the estate’s plots is an integral part of its identity, making them highly resistant to the heat of summer. La Vieille Julienne has always belonged to the Daumen family. They work the terroirs with respect and attentiveness, practicing good farming sense.
