Châteauneuf-du-Pape
The 2010 vintage in Châteauneuf-du-Pape is considered one of the great vintages of the decade, together with 2000, 2001 and 2007. This cuvée is one of the first blends signed by Xavier Vignon. The berries come from “collection vines”, where many grape varieties were planted according to the appellation’s tradition. It is therefore difficult to give the exact proportion of each grape variety. A wine that lives up to its name!
