Maison Bouachon have produced fantastic blends in Châteauneuf-du-Pape for over a century & have expanded out of the region to other Southern Rhône spots. They were pioneers in creating wines from old vines, & their experience certainly shows here. Up to 21 varieties can make their way into a Cotes-du-Rhône blend. This one is made from Grenache & Carignan. Grenache brings body & red-fruit flavour. Carignan brings tannins & hints of sweet spices. Crucially, this is made from very old vines, which produce intensely concentrated grapes.
