ABOUT THIS WINE
The Omnia Châteauneuf-du-Pape Rouge 2014 is a red wine from the Southern Rhône Valley, produced by Rotem & Mounir Saouma. The wine's name, 'Omnia,' signifies its sourcing from all five communes within the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation and across the producer's nine vineyards. Rotem and Mounir Saouma, who also operate the Burgundy négociant house Lucien Le Moine, apply a winemaking philosophy that emphasizes finesse and precision, often drawing parallels to Burgundian styles. The grapes primarily include Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre, with the blend potentially incorporating all thirteen permitted varieties of the appellation. The estate's vineyards feature old vines, some dating back to the 1940s.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Omnia Châteauneuf-du-Pape Rouge 2014 is produced using grapes from multiple parcels within the appellation. Winemaking involves fermentation in diverse vessels, including French oak barrels, foudres, cement tanks, and concrete eggs, with some wines benefiting from long cold maceration. The wine undergoes an extended aging period, typically two years in French oak barrels on lees, with some cuvées aging for up to three or four years. The Saoumas practice minimal intervention, generally avoiding racking, fining, or filtering. Farming practices adhere to organic principles.
