Du corps, de la texture, de la fraîcheur, du velouté dans le tanin, de la longueur et ce rebond final chocolaté étincelant. Au nez, il embaume la fraise des bois : c'est un vin solaire, qui s'impose par sa stature solide et son fruit généreux. Racé et plein, c'est une très belle réussite. Ce Châteauneuf-du-Pape "Clos" présente une couleur rubis profond, violet, avec des tanins soyeux et une bonne acidité. Toujours un redoutable rapport qualité/prix.

Terroir : les raisins sont issus de plusieurs lieux-dits : Montalivet, La Crau, Les Blachières, Coste Froide, Bois Seneseau, Palestor, Bois Dauphin, Pied de Baud, Les Bousquets, Les Parrans et Les Marines. Les sols sont principalement constitués de colluvions à quartzites, d’argiles marines, de sables, de grès mollassiques et de galets roulés.

Vinification : grappes récoltées à la main, avec un tri très sévère pour garder les meilleures baies, cueillies à maturité. La vinification est ensuite conduite avec quelques remontages et délestages. Jus de presse et jus de goutte sont élevés séparément. Macération : 35 jours, fermentation en cuve béton puis élevage : 65% en foudre, 20% en cuve béton, 8% en cuve acier et 7% en barrique ancienne.

Accords mets/vin : cuisine du sud, gibiers à plumes / poils, fromages, civet de lièvre, dessert au chocolat noir.

The Estate Clos du Mont-Olivet

The Clos du Mont Olivet was created in 1932 by Séraphin Sabon, and since its origins the family estate has been producing high quality, classic Châteauneuf du Pape on magnificent terroirs, as well as Côtes du Rhône wines of excellent quality.
The vineyard covers 32 hectares, 20.5 hectares of which are used for the Châteauneuf wines, which are made from a large majority of Grenache grapes, while the whites are made from Bourboulenc and Roussanne.


The domain still seems to be unknown in the area. But for how much longer...? The wines of the domain are regularly acclaimed by the finest tasters such as Parker, Bettane & Desseauve, RVF who often place Clos du Mont Olivet among the elite of the region.

The wines are always very deep, rich, imbued with their terroir, ready to stand the test of time. They will begin to peak at 10 years of age and will finish well after 20 years, depending on the vintage, when they will deliver all their aromatic complexity, which is impressive here. The Petit Mont is easier to access because of its constitution and also because of its really angelic price... As for the Côtes du Rhône, they are very good alternatives, providing a maximum of pleasure, like this Varène, which is predominantly Syrah and offers exceptional value for money... Then you may have the opportunity to touch the grail with this Papet cuvée produced only in the best vintages, which is the flagship cuvée of wine lovers.

The Clos du Mont Olivet is to be discovered as a matter of urgency because of the quality and consistency of all the vintages. Come and discover them on the website Les Passionnés du Vin. You can taste them with a multitude of dishes (game, meat in sauce, certain cheeses...) for exceptional tasting moments. Enjoy them and consume them in moderation.

The Estate Le Clos du Caillou

The Clos du Caillou estate has the particularity of being an enclave adjacent to the Châteauneuf du Pape appellation area. The vineyard is made up of 44 hectares of Côtes du Rhône and 9 hectares of Châteauneuf du Pape, planted for the most part in 1956. It is composed of the 13 grape varieties authorised for the production of a Châteauneuf du Pape, the Grenache grape variety is the majority for the red wines, followed by Syrah, while the clairette rose, the grenache blanc and the roussanne share the majority of the white grape varieties. The soils here are particularly rich, sandy or pebbly, making it possible to produce wines of exemplary aromatic complexity.
All these specificities, gathered at the heart of the Clos du Caillou estate, allow us to offer very high quality Côtes du Rhône wines, such as the magnificent Quartz vintage, which demonstrates the richness of these exceptional terroirs. In addition, Sylvie Vacheron and Bruno Gaspard have been converting the estate to organic farming since 2006. The 2010 vintage was the first to benefit from the organic label (AB), which completes the quality of the work undertaken for decades. An estate to be followed closely, with all the qualities to produce the best... Discover the best vintages on the Passionnés du Vin website; Bouquet des garrigues, Quartz, Safres, Cuvée réserve; all of these vintages will brighten up your taste buds (in moderation) and go wonderfully well with a multitude of dishes, for an exceptional tasting experience.
