Vinification Details

  • This Châteauneuf du Pape comes from a blend of old grenache, syrah and mourvèdre from the Fargueirol rolled pebbles plateau, in the North West of the appellation. The grapes are harvested by hand and destemmed. Maceration lasts 30 days. Vinification and ageing take place in concrete tanks. There is no fining on the wine.

History

  • "Julie Rouffignac and Gérald Lafont are both oenologists from the South of France, passionate about wine and good food. They unearth the most beautiful wines of Provence and Rhône Valley, directly from the winemakers."

Regional Information

  • The 2017 vintage began with a mild winter, followed by lower temperatures in May with some heavy rain during the flowering period, resulting in reduced yields. By mid-June, the weather improved, becoming warm and dry, ideal growing conditions for the grapes and optimal harvest conditions. This wine hails from the North West of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The vineyard's limestone soils consist of large rolled pebbles or galets, red clay and sand.

BTEC Chateaunauf made in the vineyard of failure

1 stars

It's awful. After letting it breath, the flavour was acidic, bland, not full-bodied. Not worth the money in the slightest. Go to majestic wines and buy some other wine from Rhone.

Don’t bother

2 stars

Not good Agree with others it is not full bodied as Chateauneuf should be Also good ones keep well, opened a bottle of 2015 and it hardy has any flavor left Tesco’s wines are usually very average anyway This one is for people who have heard the name but have never tried good Chateauneuf

Look elsewhere at this price.

2 stars

Was good last year. Very disappointing this year. This is the 2nd French C d P that's let me down at this price point. Don't know what's going on. Perhaps try a good quality Shiraz based, appropriately blended, South African or Aussie.

This is the worst chateauneuf neuf du pape I have

1 stars

This is the worst chateauneuf neuf du pape I have ever tasted. Avoid at all costs. Wouldn't buy it half price

A very good vintage

4 stars

Not as full bodied as one would expect in such a good year ! still a decent wine and good value comparatively, would I buy again, not sure that I would not put the extra towards a better example of this great year in the Rhone as there are some stunning wines out there, nonethe less good value for an introduction to CNP.

Extremely pleasant

4 stars

Whilst i didn't think it quite deserved a five star rating it was very smooth with a nice fruity and classic taste with no off notes at all. If the price was right I would certainly purchase this wine again.

We love Chateauneuf

5 stars

Buying Tesco Finest is always safe - we've never had a bad batch and so keep going back periodically for a couple of cases.

Red for Christmas Lunch

3 stars

Pleasant tasting but not as full bodied as we had hoped.

Excellent

5 stars

Delicious and terrific value. Serious fruit, flavour, density and mouthfeel. It's hard to imagine a better Chateauneuf du Pape especially for the inexpensive price tag. The balance between fruit and structure is just right.

Sublime

5 stars

An absolutely fantastic example of a chateau neuf du pape. Full of rich flavours, succulent fruits, a real treat with a Sunday roast, or even a cheeky glass before bed!
