What makes Châteauneuf-du-Pape so special is its unique terroir, its blend of 13 authorized grape varieties and its prestigious history. Located in the Rhône Valley, the appellation benefits from a warm Mediterranean climate and soils composed of rounded pebbles, which release the heat accumulated during the day, favoring optimal ripening of the grapes. Unlike other appellations, Châteauneuf-du-Pape allows a wide range of red and white grape varieties, enabling a wide variety of wine styles. Its history is also marked by the influence of the Avignon popes in the 14th century, who contributed to the vineyard’s development. Thanks to meticulous vinification and strict specifications, Châteauneuf-du-Pape wines are renowned for their power, aromatic complexity and excellent ageing potential.
