CHATEAUNEUF 09 MONPERTUIS
"The Domaine de Monpertuis has been in the hands of the Jeune family for several generations. Each successor has added bits and pieces of vineyards to the expanding whole of the estate so that the current owner, Paul Jeune, is now the proprietor of the 10 acres of vines that are scattered amongst 32 separate parcels throughout the confines of Chateauneuf du Pape. In addition, Jeune now vinifies separate cuvees of Cotes du Rhone and Vin de Pays du Gard as well as his white and reds from the Chateauneuf appellation.The "Cuvee Classique" blend normally is based on 70-85% Grenache with Mourvedre, Syrah and Cinsault providing the balance. The "Cuvee Tradition", produced solely from old vines of minimum age of 60 years, is supported by at least 85% Grenache." MADROSE
