La Fiole du Pape

La Fiole du Pape Châteauneuf-du-Pape is crafted through a meticulous process that begins with the separate fermentation of each of the permitted grape varieties in concrete vats. Following alcoholic and malolactic fermentation, which typically lasts around 20 days for maceration, the wine undergoes aging. Some components are matured in large, old oak barrels (foudres). A distinctive feature of this wine is the blend of multiple vintages, with reserve wines (some up to five years old) constituting a significant portion of the final cuvée, a technique employed to ensure stylistic consistency and roundness.
