Terroir

The plateau de Mont-Redon is made out of a thick layer of rolled pebbles, present over two meters deep which progressively combine with the “safre” (sandy soil), allowing for great draining properties. Then thin clayish layers provide important soil water-holding capacity. This combination of pebbles, sandy soil and clay is what makes this terroir great, and offers the nearly one-hundred-years-old vines which make up the Plateau de Mont­Redon cuvee an ideally moderate supply of water.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested manually and sorted in the vineyard, de-stemmed then sorted a second time on an optical sorting table. After a cold maceration of 2 to 3 days, skin contact lasts for 15 to 20 days during which extraction is performed, mosdy by punching down. following the malolactic fermentation, 55% of the wines arc aged in Burgundian barrels (75% of which are new) and 45% are aged in stainless steel canks for 18 months. We then proceed to a selection of the best wines co define the final blend, which rests “e11 masse” for 12 additional months before being bottled.

Food Pairing

Ideally pair with red meats in sauce, game and cow cheese.

Awards & Recognition


Jeb Dunnuck

In the same ballpark, the 2017 Châteauneuf Du Pape Le Plateau comes only from the Mont Redon plateau and is a limited release based on 60% Grenache and 40% Syrah brought up in a mix of used and new barrels. Its saturated purple color is followed by a rocking bouquet of black raspberries, cassis, graphite, violets, and crushed rocks. With plenty of background oak, terrific depth of fruit, full body, and ripe, present tannins, it’s another balanced, age-worthy effort from this estate that should be snatched up by readers. Give bottles 4-5 years and enjoy over the following two decades.

Wine Advocate

The 2017 Chateauneuf du Pape le Plateau—the only one of these four vintages to be bottled—is velvety and forward, with notes of ripe cherries, cedar, vanilla and mocha. It's full-bodied, but not overbearingly tannic, making it approachable already. Only the second vintage to be produced, it's a 60-40 blend of Grenache and Syrah that matured in a mix of tanks and new barrels.

Wine Spectator

Steeped plum, blackberry and black currant fruit forms the core, with lots of charcoal, warm earth, bittersweet ganache and tobacco notes filling in through the slightly burly finish. Solid energy provides support throughout. A gutsy throwback. Grenache and Syrah. Best from 2023 through 2038. 40 cases imported.
