Châteauneuf-du-Pape: a village out of time

The Rhône Valley boasts a rich palette of grape varieties, including Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Cinsault, and Clairette. In Châteauneuf-du-Pape, 13 grape varieties are used in the blending of wines. The fabulous history of this vineyard, revealed by the Popes when they settled in Avignon in the XNUMXth century, is recounted here.

The business of Winemaker at heart from the village…

Vine growing follows the rhythm of the seasons. From pruning the vines in winter to harvesting in autumn, the winemaker does everything possible to ensure the vine develops harmoniously throughout the year. There are several ways to manage a vineyard depending on the terroir, age and variety of the vines...

The Brotte Wine Museum depicts this work with a particular focus on the grape harvest.

Once harvested, the grapes are taken to the winery to be vinified in vats and then aged in wooden casks. Following this process, the wines are blended after lengthy tasting sessions held directly in the vats, in the cool of the cellars. The Brotte Wine Museum presents each of these stages through informative and illustrated descriptions. It also explains the winemaking techniques for red, white, and rosé wines, which differ for each color.
