James Suckling
“A touch of elegance with a bouquet of fresh red berries”
"Traditionally dominated by Grenache (80%) and aged gently in old barrels for 12 months, it reveals an open, luscious nose of ripe red fruits and praline brioche. Spices and leather round out this refined palette in a comfortable and flavorful palate, structured by perfectly integrated oak and silky, caressing tannins. A remarkable balance that can be enjoyed without waiting too long.” (Le Guide Hachette 2025)

About the wine:
A cuvée from the Saumades district, a vineyard site where soils of safre and red clay with rounded pebbles meet. Classically dominated by Grenache (80%) and aged gently in old barrels for 12 months, it reveals an open, luscious nose of ripe red fruits and praline brioche. Spices and leather round out this refined palette in a comfortable, flavorful palate, structured by perfectly integrated oak and silky, caressing tannins. A remarkable balance that can be enjoyed without waiting too long.
About the estate:
Coming from a long line of Provençal winemakers, Michel Audibert acquired Jas des Papes in Courthézon in 2014. Here, he cultivates about ten hectares of organic vineyards (certified in 2017) in the Saumades area, from which he produces three Châteauneuf wines—one white and two reds.

About the wine:
This full-bodied, robust Châteauneuf-du-Pape offers concentrated aromas of licorice, baking spices, and wild blackberries, underscored by a richness of velvety tannins. The wine’s boldness is well balanced by its freshness, making it appealing despite its 15% alcohol content. A long finish with a wonderful savory character and notes of raw meat. A blend of Grenache and Syrah made from organically grown grapes. Drink now or cellar.
