It has an exuberant body reminiscent of the great Pinots of the Côte de Nuits

displaying a finely textured palate with flavours of guava and stone fruit

the family began looking for a small cottage in Napa Valley that they could use as a weekend retreat where they could make a little homemade wine

Andre Brunel Châteauneuf-du-Pape Les Cailloux 2022 (750ml) Viognier It has an exuberant bodyWinemaker Notes Clean and elegant, the nose features red fruits typical of Grenache with pepper and spice from Mourvdre and Syrah. The spices are more pronounced on the palate, enhanced by a touch of oak. The palate is fruitdriven than classic Chteauneuf du Pape, showing its savory side through a long finish. It is approachable now and will continue to evolve for five to eight years. Blend: 60% Grenache, 27% Mourvdre, 10% Syrah, 3% Cinsault Critical
