Description

A seductive, complex and mineral Châteauneuf-du-Pape white wine

The estate

The Domaine des Sénéchaux vineyard boasts origins that date back to the 14th century. Taking its name from the Bois Sénéchaux area, one of the largest plots of land on the estate, Domaine des Sénéchaux was acquired by the Cazes family in 2006, owners of the prestigious Château Lynch-Bages, a Pauillac Grand Cru Classé.

The vineyard

Domaine des Sénéchaux watches over a 3-hectare plot of land which produces a great Châteauneuf-du-Pape white wine. Enjoying a south/southwestern sun exposure, the vines are planted on the superficial layer of soil composed of sand, clay and limestone.

The vintage

The dry and mild conditions in winter, along with the heatwaves during spring, favoured an early budbreak. The ideal conditions during the summer ensure a gradual and even ripening process.

Vinification and ageing

Following the harvest, the grapes are gravity-fed into a press and undergo a light crushing. Skin maceration for the Roussanne and Clairette grape varieties. Cold settling before temperature-controlled vinification. 25% of the wine is aged in first-fill barrels (Roussanne) and 75% in vats.

The blend

Roussanne (36%)

Clairette (30%)

Grenache blanc (25%)

Bourboulenc (9%).
