Praised by Olivier Poussier, Best Sommelier in the World and member of the Selection Committee, this estate—born from the family division of Vignobles Mayard—has been making a rapid ascent, earning the attention of wine lovers and critics alike.
Now under the leadership of the Roumieux family, the estate is pushing quality to new heights.

With 70% Grenache and no oak influence, the 2023 Red Châteauneuf-du-Pape is another standout success. Bursting with juicy intensity, it showcases ripe black fruit aromas, layered with a distinct graphite note that adds depth. The structure strikes a perfect balance between richness and concentration, with silky, well-integrated tannins keeping it smooth and vibrant. A superb Châteauneuf! Rated 93/100 by Olivier Poussier. |
