Rhone Valley Artisans of Châteauneuf-du-Pape

Our committee's review

Châteauneuf-du-Pape is the undisputed star of the Southern Rhône Valley, famous for wines that stand the test of time. On the left bank of the Rhône, between Avignon and Orange, its blessed terroir is a patchwork of soils that gives each wine its own voice.

Those iconic round pebbles are just the beginning. Limestone, clay, sandstone, marl and sand all play their part, shaped by the sun and tamed by the mistral.

As one of the great names of French wine, Châteauneuf-du-Pape has earned a loyal following among enthusiasts who know its aging potential is second to none.

Here’s your chance to taste the difference: three outstanding wines that show this appellation at its very best, offered under special conditions.

A blend of grenache and mourvèdre, vinified in concrete vats and aged in barrels, the 2021 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Baron de Montfaucon x VALAP captures all the finesse of its clay-sand soils scattered with rounded pebbles. It combines elegance with intensity, delivering aromas of stone fruits and cherry in eau-de-vie. The delicate, infused structure reflects both the freshness of the vintage and a discreet aging that lets the fruit shine through, creating a finely balanced wine with clear potential for long aging. A superb value for this appellation, rated 92/100 by our Selection Committee. Here’s your chance to secure one of the best-priced Châteauneuf-du-Pape wines of the year.

Resting on the strength of a superb vintage, the 2019 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Cuvée Mourre des Perdrix offers a beautifully pure expression of grenache, with delicate floral notes and aromas of fresh fruit. The texture is refined and graceful, wrapped in finely detailed fruit, with a tight structure and tannins that will soften beautifully over time. The balance is impeccable, supported by oak that remains discreet. This is a wine built to age at least ten years with ease. Rated 93/100 by our Selection Committee. Here’s your chance to enjoy a Châteauneuf-du-Pape of both finesse and longevity.

Sumptuous indeed. According to Olivier Poussier, Best Sommelier in the World and member of our Selection Committee, the 2022 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red is a truly magnificent wine. Showing wonderful ripeness, it displays rare elegance, opening with refined notes of garrigue, tapenade and blood orange. The palate follows in the same graceful register, layered with Mediterranean hints of wild herbs and dry scrubland, offering impressive volume, texture and flesh, yet never in excess. Perfectly balanced, this is a great wine built to age for 15 to 20 years. A Selection Committee favorite, rated 94/100 and 95/100 by Parker. Here’s your chance to secure a benchmark Châteauneuf-du-Pape from an exceptional vintage.
