Crafted by Laurent Charvin, one of the Rhône Valley’s most respected traditionalists, this Côtes du Rhône is the real deal. Grown just outside the famed Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation, from vines averaging over 50 years old, it’s made with the same meticulous care and old-school winemaking that defines Charvin’s top-tier wines (minus the Châteauneuf price tag).
Whole-bunch fermented in concrete vats, this is a masterclass in restraint and balance: a seamless expression of fruit purity, lifted by notes of wild herbs, spice, and earthy complexity. No oak, no fuss, just the Rhône in its most honest and elegant form.
Robert Parker once called Charvin’s wines the “Richebourg of Châteauneuf-du-Pape.”

92/100 Stuart Pigott, JamesSuckling.com (2022 Vintage)
"A wealth of red fruit aromas are wrapped around an elegant core of fine tannins on the medium- to full-bodied palate. Excellent concentration and length for this appellation. So many delicate spice notes at the beautifully balanced finish A cuvee based on grenache. Bottled unfiltered."
