Discover Château de la Font du Loup Le Puy Rolland Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2024, a distinctive expression of old-vine Grenache from one of the Southern Rhône's respected wine estates. This special cuvée highlights the purity of its vineyard terroir, combining concentrated fruit, silky tannins and remarkable aromatic elegance.

Produced from a parcel of approximately 100-year-old Grenache vines, Le Puy Rolland reflects the estate's commitment to expressing the character of its individual vineyards. The vines grow in sandy soils dating back to the Pliocene geological period, contributing to the wine's distinctive finesse and aromatic complexity.

Vinification is carried out gently in temperature-controlled concrete vats to preserve the purity of the fruit and the natural expression of Grenache. The wine is subsequently matured for 18 months in French oak barrels, developing additional depth, texture and complexity.

The 2024 vintage reveals a beautiful ruby-red colour, with expressive aromas of kirsch, candied orange zest and ripe dark berries. On the palate, silky tannins frame flavours of blueberry, blackcurrant, sweet spices and liquorice, complemented by elegant oak nuances. Rich yet energetic, it delivers a rounded texture and a long, harmonious finish.

A refined Châteauneuf-du-Pape that showcases the elegance and concentration possible from exceptionally old Grenache vines.
