Current Vintage: 2019
Grapes: Syrah, Grenache, Mouvedre, Cinsault
Founded by Gratien Mayard in the 19th century, the Vignoble Mayard is located in Châteauneuf-du-Pape and has been a family business for 6 generations.
The Domaine du Pere Pape Châteauneuf du Pape is a wonderful blend of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Cinsault. The grapes are sourced from soils of sand and red clay covered with the peculiar Rhone rolled pebbles (locally called 'galets roulés'). The resulting wine is produced in homage to Gratien Mayard, ancestor of the current producers and founder of the winery.
On the nose, the wine shows a beautiful intensity. The aromas of black fruit jam, spices, and cocoa brought by Syrah give this cuvée a great complexity. On the palate, the wine is round and warm and it reveals dense and elegant tannins, with typical peppery notes on the finish. It is already appreciable now, but with a few years in the cellar, it can develop its personality to the fullest.
