This white Châteauneuf-du-Pape from Vinarium® is a veritable ode to innovation, unprecedented in the history of French wine! It is the result of a unique aging method: small barrels were immersed in the Vinarium®, a truncated wooden vat, completely sheltered from oxygen. This wine was aged under pressure in immersion for thirty months.

Sight
Deep golden yellow.

Smell
Oaked and toasted aromas. Hints of dried fruit and mirabelle plum.

Taste
Fresh and lively attack, very good acidity and long aromatic finish.
 

Terroir

Selection of several plots in the appellation’s four soil types: pebbles, sand, clay and limestone. These plots have been carefully chosen for their northerly exposure, which ensures better acidity and greater freshness.
