The Chateauneuf Du Pape Rouge from Clos Des Papes is a true gem of French winemaking, characterized by an impressive aromatic richness. This wine, from the renowned Rhône Valley region, is primarily produced from Grenache grapes, complemented by Syrah and Mourvèdre, which give it a robust and complex structure. In the glass, it presents with an intense and deep red color. On the nose, notes of ripe red fruits, sweet spices, and a slight hint of vanilla, resulting from aging in barriques, stand out. On the palate, the wine is fully harmonious, with well-integrated tannins and a persistent taste that invites another sip. Perfect to serve with rich dishes like meat stews or aged cheeses, the Chateauneuf Du Pape Rouge from Clos Des Papes promises to evolve beautifully in the cellar over the coming decades.

Winery history
The estate has been linked to the Avril family for generations: historical documents and accounts record the presence of the Avrils in the area as far back as earlier centuries and the start of commercialization under the name Clos des Papes around the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. In recent decades the estate has remained family-run under Paul‑Vincent Avril, who has preserved the estate's traditional approach.
Production philosophy
A pursuit of finesse and balance: careful winemaking to highlight the dispersed parcels within the appellation, hand-harvested grapes, rigorous selection and cellar practices oriented toward minimal intervention to express the character of the terroir. Production is focused on a single large red cuvée and a small percentage of white.
Terroir and vineyards
The vines are located in the heart of the Châteauneuf‑du‑Pape appellation, on fragmented parcels scattered around the commune — including the historic vineyard next to the Papal Castle. The area's characteristic soils and terroirs contribute to the wines' complexity.
