1.0ha, relatively lime-rich soil (Esquierons, Bosquets). Fermented at 18-20℃ in 50hl large barrels. No malolactic fermentation to maintain freshness. Aged for about 7 months. The Domaine is located at the northernmost tip of the Châteauneuf-du-Pape AOC. Owning 21ha of vineyards and 18 plots (3 plots in the VV), the Domaine is now one of the leading winemakers in the region. The Armenier sisters, who inherited the vineyards from their father, are in charge of cultivating the vineyards, while their younger sister Sophie is in charge of winemaking. The name "Armenier" is one of the oldest families in Pape, recorded in 1340. In 1990, the eldest brother Philippe also joined the Domaine, but left to teach biodynamic cultivation in California, and the Armenier sisters have been in charge of cultivating and winemaking ever since. We started biodynamic farming in 1994. We are currently certified Biologique, but still use biodynamic cultivation methods. 100% of the grapes are destemmed. We limit yields to 25-30hl/ha, which allows the fruit to be concentrated, and our wines, which are grown and brewed using traditional and modern methods, have received very high praise for both red and white.
