Domaine de la Solitude

2022 Châteauneuf-du-Pape AOC Vin de la Solitude Rouge

This wine is a tribute to Paul Martin, who was one of the first French winemakers to sell his wine in bottles in the 18th century under the name "Vin de la Solitude".
Made according to the 18th-century vinique art with very different blends where Grenache is not dominant. The wine consists of a large number of co-fermented grapes with much longer macerations than those made today.
