Description

Philippe Bravay at Domaine de Ferrand crafts wonderful wines at all levels but his Chateauneuf is the peak of his vinous mastery.

His old vine Grenache finds its best expression here - always thrilling and driven, never overripe or heavy. No oak here, it's fermented in concrete and aged in tank.

While the Chateauneuf du Pape sits in a premium price bracket, it offers fantastic value in the context of the region. Want to see one of the great Grenache wines in the world at the moment? Get yourself a bottle of this.

    Amazing value: Top Shelf

    Simply one of the best CDP's I've had without paying crazy prices. Excellent wine, buy with confidence.

The Châteauneuf du Pâpe is 90% Grenache, the vines ranging in age from 60 to 100 years of age, and the balance the other twelve Châteauneuf varietals. From these he obtains superb natural ripeness, usually in excess of 14%. His methods are classic and the aging is for the most part in large oak foudre, but also a small portion in old barriques, however no new oak. The reds here start off life dark fruited, juicy and succulent and will close up after 5 years before opening again to evolve into penetrating and exotic flavours of kirsch, ash, sandalwood, leather and spice; always big wines, they are the very image of their landscape—hillsides of mistral battered vines growing between sun bleached stones the size of your fist. This is a wine stylistically similar to Domaines Marcoux, Charvin and Vielle-Julienne - all of whom are neighbours.
