Vin De Pays Grenache

Beef, Pasta, Lamb, Poultry

Aged in concrete Vats for 4 months

The grapes are selected in the vineyard and then destemmed before being put into vats. Three weeks of fermentation and maceration in concrete vats follow, with the use of indigenous yeasts. Temperatures are kept low in order to produce aromatic wines. They do not insist on any massive extraction, but prefer the ‘matière’ to express itself. Due to the work in the vineyards, the grapes possess enough concentration. The pressed juice and free-run juice are blended together according to the vintage.

Owned by the Grangeon family for several generations, the Domaine de Cristia is located in Courthézon, a town located to the east of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. It covers 42 hectares divided between the Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Côtes-du-Rhône Villages, Côtes-du-Rhône and Vin de Pays appellations.
