"Immediate pleasure!
"One of the three great wines of this tasting. I tasted it several times and compared it with its peers. Each time, the intensity of the explosive fruit gives it harmony and scope beyond compare. A sumptuous wine with notes of blood orange and burlat cherry, with a deep body that never detracts from the finesse of its saffron soil". (Revue RVF n° 685 - November 2024)

About the wine:
One of the three great wines of this tasting. I tasted it several times and compared it with its peers. Each time, the intensity of the explosive fruit gives it harmony and scope beyond compare. A sumptuous wine with notes of blood orange and burlat cherry, with a deep body that never detracts from the finesse of its saffron soil.
About the domain :
Located in the northern part of the Châteauneuf appellation, in the village of Courthézon, this estate, rich in old vines, has belonged to the Charrier family for three generations. Caroline is in charge of vinification, her brother Frédéric of the vines. The "lieux-dits" Cristia, Pointu and La Guigasse form the basis of Châteauneuf, 99% of which is Grenache, harvested whole and aged in concrete vats.
