The domain tells you about it: "It is not easy to explain why the "Reserved" is so singular. The old vines, low yields and natural approach are the foundations of it, but it is in the microclimate of the northern slope of the northern part of Châteauneuf du Pape that it will forge its character. In mid-August, when the vineyard is deserted, I like to walk through the vines on the slope of the "Three Springs", observe their expressions, taste the berries. At that time, I have to be receptive and appreciate all the details that, in the context of certain vintages, some vines show particular expressions. Only in this case, these century-old Grenache (90%), but also Cinsault and Counoise Syrah vines will be identified and vinified separately to produce the Reserved". Jean-Paul Daumen
