    In a few words ...

    This exceptional cuvée is made only in the very best years, from the best plots of old Grenache on a terroir of rolled pebbles. Aged for eighteen months in demi-muids, this astonishingly fine and elegant wine expresses the nobility of Château Gigognan's work.

    Appellation

    Châteauneuf-du-Pape

    The appellation Châteauneuf-du-Pape is part of the region of Vallée du Rhône from France which include Château Gigognan and its 13 cuvées. Spread over The Rhone Valley and its rich, complex terroirs. The region is divided into two distinct subregions: Northern Rhone (known as Rhône Septentrional) and Southern Rhone (Rhône Méridional). In the former we find strong wines in beautiful colours with warm, spicy notes, produced by vineyards that stretch 4,700 ha along the Rhone. The latter, with an area of 71,000 ha, is much more important, and this is evident of course in its annual production of red, rosé and white wines quite unlike those of the Northern Rhone., this region is 3 million hectolitres per year of red wines, rosés, dry and sparkling white wines, and natural sweet wine..
