Product Overview
Importer's Notes
"Jérôme Mathieu’s family roots go back to the 16th century in the village of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The wisdom of the ages is something he feels keenly and explains his staunch traditionalism. He works with 23 acres divided into 26 parcels across the appellation in various exposures, elevations and soils, and practically all of these parcels are old field blends (many with the full allotment of Châteauneuf’s 13 grape varieties), giving him a great deal of diversity to make a true, old-school Châteauneuf-du-Pape."
