Gigondas Hominis Fides Castle of Saint Cosimo 2021
Very old grenache planted on Miocene limestone sands at a place called "Hominis Fides". Whole harvest. Twelve month aging: 20% in new pieces - 50% in pieces of one wine - 30% in pieces of two and three wines.
The sands of Miocene are, in Gigondas as in the rest of the valley of the Rhone, a geological event posterior to the great uprising of the lace of Montmirail. When the Alps rise, they, like a sheet of paper that we tilt, "open" the Rhone Valley, allowing the sea to engulf itself like a snake finding its way. The sea then covers Lyon, circling the Alpine arc; the Luberon and the Ventoux are only islands, prehistoric fish frolic in the chapel of Saint Cosme and ammonites accumulate in phenomenal quantities. At this time, sands are deposited in our region: we find them in many sites in the Southern Rhone Valley: in the Uchaux massif, Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas ... Much later, the small ants that we decide to grow vitis vinifera on these sands, and it turns out that the grenache finds there an amazing field of expression. The old Grenache vine in the Miocene sands is the aromatic finesse, the elegant texture, the depth in the mouth. When the wine ages, it takes notes of Morey Saint Denis pinot: peony and small red berries. What a great idea to have planted at the dawn of the twentieth century, 12 years before the Great War, this vineyard that is always with us.

Henry Bonneau
Grape: Grenache
The Henri Bonneau estate has 6 hectares of vines.
Henri Bonneau has always been considered one of the great winegrowers of Châteauneuf du Pape.
Still in his cellar, this discreet man was like a hermit.
He always has timeless wine products with very long aging.
This great winemaker left us in 2016.
CHATEAUNEUF DU PAPE CUVÉE CHAUPIN DOMAINE DE LA JANASSE 2018
In 1967, Aimé Sabon returned from his military service. He took over the vines from his father (who brought his grapes to the cooperative cellar) and his father-in-law (who sold the wine to the trade).
In 1973, Aimé built his own cellar. Thus was born the Domaine de la Janasse, named after the family farm which was located in Courthézon, at a place called “La Janasse”. Aimé is ambitious. Aware of having a fabulous terroir, he continues to expand the estate by acquiring new plots. From 15 hectares yesterday, La Janasse now occupies 90 hectares.
In 1991, after a BTA in viticulture and oenology in Beaune and a BTS in marketing in Mâcon, Christophe Sabon joined his father who, from the start, left him the keys to the cellar. Under his leadership, La Janasse produces different cuvées, conquers new markets and is firmly in keeping with its time.
In 2001, Isabelle, Christophe's sister, a graduate oenologist from the Faculty of Toulouse, joined the team in 2001. With Hélène, Aimé's wife and Christophe and Isabelle's mother, the family is reunited at La Janasse, which becomes, in a few years, one of the jewels of Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
This cuvée comes from the cold and late terroirs of Chapouin (sand) and La Janasse and from the plateau of La Crau (sand). Area: 7 ha.
100% Garnacha. Vines planted in 1912 for the older ones. Vineyard: The vines are grown without pesticides or insecticides and the manure is of natural origin. The land is worked without weedkiller to maintain the aeration and flexibility of the soil.
Yield: 28hl/ha.
Vinification: Destemming at 80%. Maceration for 26 days with daily manual punching down. Ageing: 2/3 in tuns and 1/3 in demi-muids (600 litres). Production: 12000 to 16000 bottles per year. Tasting: The quintessence of Grenache in its finest expression from its birthplace of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Between notes of black fruits and violets, this cuvée advances in time quite supplely, with already melted tannins. A beautiful bottle, the archetype of the appellation, to pair with a deer stew today and over the next twenty-five years.
PAUL APRIL
Grapes Grenache, Mourvèdre, Syrah
Area: 29 hectares.
Details Domain: Pioneer of the bottling on the property, the Avril family owns a domain, which despite its name of clos can rely on almost all the geological natures composing the appellation. She knows how to play this diversity and thus appears as one of the most regular wines, whatever the vintage.
Cellar storage: The best vintages usually require 5 8 years to flourish and are suitable for a very long guard.

Côtes du Rhône Red 2022 Domaine des Espiers 75cl
It is in 1989 that the area of Espiers was born in Vacqueyras, when Philippe Cartoux decided to walk in the footsteps of his grandparents who owned a vineyard in the family since 1879.
The nature of the soil is clay and limestone with 15% garrigue type pebbles. The culture is carried out without chemical weedkillers in order to preserve the typicality of the soils. The grape variety is 70% Grenache noir, 20% Mourvèdre and 10% Syrah. Aged 25 years on average, the vines are young and have a high density of 5400 vines per hectare, which is 30% more than traditional plantations from the southern Rhône. The yield of the vines is 40 hl. The vinification is carried out in concrete vats and the stalk is kept during the vinification in order to facilitate pumping over and unloading. Aging takes place in concrete vats for 8 months before bottling.
COTES DU RHONE Saint Cosme 2022
Crozes Hermitage Saint Cosme 2021 75cl
100% Serine (old syrah).
Destemmed harvest. Granite soils.
Aged for twelve months: 20% in new barrels - 40% in barrels of one wine - 40% in barrels of two wines
On the left bank of the Rhône, at the height of the 45th parallel, unfolds the largest vineyard of the northern appellations, in 11 communes of the Drôme: the Vineyard of Crozes-Hermitage. A prestigious cru, Crozes-Hermitage is available in reds, made from Syrah, and whites from Roussanne and Marsanne.
Acquired by the family in 1490, the property comprises 22 ha of old vines with an average age of 60 years.
They give small yields. The terroir of Saint Cosme is a geological mosaic linked to the great upheaval of the Dentelles de Montmirail. Saint Cosme is located exactly at the crossing point of two geological faults, in a cold and late microclimate: balance, freshness and finesse characterize the wines.
