Grape Varieties: Grenache, Mourvedre, Syrah
Robert Parker: 92-94/100
“Wonderful chateauneuf-du-Pape. Classic blend of Grenache Syrah and Mourvèdre. Deep ruby colour with a very expressive nose evoking scents of ripe strawberries, sweet cherries and blackberries. The palate is a reflection of the nose with notes of spice and oak. A full-bodied wine with moderate acidity and very soft supple tannins."
Wine Enthusiast: 96/100
"Deep, penetrating flavours of blackberry jam and spiced plums take centre stage in this sumptuous, airy blend."

Domaine St. Patrice
With origins dating back to the 17th Century under Louis XIV, the estate has recently been revived under the capable hands of new owners Guy Julian and his son Jerome, working with Samuel Montgermont, the charge d`affaires of the Maison Grandes Serres in Chateauneuf. Today the Domaine produces three wines- the Clos Saint Patrice, the Domain Saint Patrice Chateauneuf, and the beautiful Cotes du Rhone, made entirely of Chateauneuf fruit. The wines are produced organically with deep respect for the terroir, vines are propagated via selection massale. Superb examples of the winemaker’s art in a clean, pure and elegant style.
