Châteauneuf du pape 2015 Les Saintes Vierges - Domaine Santa Duc
We have a special relationship with this terroir, one of the first on which we settled in the appellation. The old Grenache vines, supported by Mourvèdre and Counoise, seem to have a penchant for the finesse and lightness of these sandy soils situated in the southwester part of the appellation, which are slightly warmer than those of “La Crau Ouest”. The well-being of the vines reflects in the balanced taste of the wine, whose fine tannin structure entirely corresponds with the character of the terroir.
Grape varieties: 90% Grenache, 9% Mourvèdre, 1% Counoise.
Vinification: Hand picked with a very selective sorting, short and soft maceration. Soft punching-down.
Ageing: In recent foudres and terracotta jars for 18 months.
Soil: Brown to light brown limestone soil from Miocene saffron.
