Description

The Boiron family have been making wine in Châteauneuf- du-Pape since 1860. Nicolas Boiron is now in charge of the estate that covers 32 hectares spread across 40 different parcels. The average age of the vines is a venerable 50 years!

They produce some of the finest and most characterful wines of Châteauneuf with masses of spicy fruit on both nose and palate, rich, generous textures and long, persistent finishes. Anyone who loves Châteauneuf-du-Pape should be buying these wines!

Les 7 de Pignan is 100% Grenache and the first release of this new cuvée – at time of writing, they have yet to finalise the label for this wine!
This is a super-selective, high quality Chateauneuf-du-Pape from 7 plots of magnificent old (80+ years) vines within the renowned Pignan lieu-dit. The grapes are only taken from the middle rows of each plot, with the remainder going in to the “Chante le Merle”. 100% whole bunch fermentation in cement vats followed by 18 months ageing in large oak foudres. Magnificent, warm, generous wine; one of the most satisfying examples of the appellation. Drink 2026-2032.
