Clos des Papes 2016

Clos des Papes 2016 rouge | Châteauneuf-du-Pape

The Clos des papes rouge 2016 is a vintage of great ageing, meaning that it will have to be forgotten for several years to be fully appreciated like the Clos des Papes 2010 and 1990. This wine is very concentrated and powerful, with very present but ripe, silky tannins. The balance is there because the acidities are good. One will have to be patient.

The quality of the product we are looking for imposes a rigorous work of the soil, from the soil to the bottle. We have always decided to make only one wine because the blending of our grape varieties and our terroirs increases the complexity of our wines. 100% of our Châteauneuf-du-Pape terroirs are sold as Clos des Papes and therefore in bottles. We strive to sublimate our terroirs. We seek to produce a wine of character, with great ageing potential, balanced and fine. For this too, we wait for optimal maturity without falling into over-ripeness.

We remind you that it is imperative to consume the whites at 12°-13° and the reds at 15°-16°. You can decant them but it is not necessary to do it 2 hours before because it is always interesting to appreciate the evolution in the glass.
