Sandy soil, pebbly plot exposed to north wind. Only old vines from 1942. Pignan plot adjacent to Chateau Rayas vineyard. 12 days of cold soaking. Aged in 500L barrels for 3 years without racking. Mr. Mounir of micro-négociant "Lucien Le Moine", who knows the terroir of Burgundy, and his wife Ms. Rotem, fell in love with "Grenache" as it faithfully expresses the terroir, just like Pinot Noir. Mr. Sauma, who has pursued Burgundy's Pinot Noir, felt new possibilities in Grenache and founded "Rotem & Mounir Sauma" to express the terroir of Chateauneuf-du-Pape. In Chateauneuf-du-Pape, he purchased the vineyards himself and makes wine consistently from cultivation to brewing, aging and bottling. The Chateauneuf-du-Pape they produce with such meticulous care is of extremely high quality, and its excellent flavor is attested to by the fact that it consistently receives high ratings from prestigious wine rating magazines such as Decanter, Wine Spectator, and Wine Advocate.
