THE WINERY:
This Côtes du Rhône is made from various type of soils, but it mostly comes from limestone terraces with sand and red clay. This give to the “Reserve” an extraordinary richness and complexity with a Mediterranean style.
History: Established in the northern part of Châteauneuf du Pape, the Jaume family has been dedicated to the art of wine growing since 1826. In the 14th century, during their stay in Avignon, the popes built a papal castle in Châteauneuf-du-Pape (“New castle of the Popes”). Impressed by the area's exceptional “terroir” (the soil and its growing conditions), they planted vineyards around the castle on terraces covered with characteristic large smooth rounded stones, which get very hot during the day in the hot sun, and keep the vine roots warm during the cold nights, providing perfect condition for wine grapes .
Winemaking & aging:
Traditional wine making and ageing is performed in vats only. Bottling after 10‐12 months.
