Informations
Terroir: Ten hectares (25 acres) in several plots around the village of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. To the south, old Grenache flourishes on the pebble-covered soils of Les Serres. To the north lie the sand-clay soils of the Charbonnières locality.
White varieties deliver upfront fruitiness in the sandstone soils west of the village, for high Châteauneuf typicity!
Chalky-loam soils yield the grapes for this wine.
