Châteauneuf-du-Pape
The heart and soul of Châteauneuf-du-Pape’s 13 varietals are certainly all present!
Ange 2001 pay tribute to the birth of Ange, Xavier’s son, but also a great vintage.
Between 2001 and 2010 Xavier gradually and patiently set aside the finest base wines from the 2001 vintage which he sources from his partner winemakers. These little gems were reunited in our ageing cellars in Châteauneuf-du-Pape before being blended by Xavier on the day of Ange’s birthday in July 2019 to make a single cuvée. The result can finally now be tasted!
