Châteauneuf-du-Pape
One of the first blends signed by Xavier Vignon. The berries come from “collection vines”, where many grape varieties have been 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!
