"Vieille Julienne's Jean-Paul Daumen is unquestionably one of the most talented winemakers in all of France" - Jeb Dunnuck
"Jean-Paul Daumen continues to make some of the purest wines in the appellation" - James Molesworth, Wine Spectator
"The Châteauneuf-du-Papes across the board are monumental wines" - Jeb Dunnuck
We are thrilled to be able to offer the extraordinary wines from Domaine de la Vieille Julienne at very compelling prices. At this point, La Vieille Julienne needs little introduction and has become an icon in the most famous appellation from the Southern Rhone, Chateauneuf du Pape. We have long been fans of these wines where 5th generation owner and winemaker Jean-Paul Daumen has propelled this property into the elite of both Chateauneuf and the Rhone Valley. The reviews for these wines reflect the quality of the estate, the winemaking and the excellent 2022 vintage.
We brought in a good supply of the Cotes du Rhone Lieu Dit Clavin which performs like a "baby Chateauneuf." This 90 Pointer is delicious and offers compelling drinkability at a great price. Dunnuck called it, "a little gem of a wine," "that I always buy if I see it."
Farming Biodynamically, Daumen refuses to use herbicides, fungicides, fertilizers and chemical products. He uses indigenous yeasts only and his wines certainly reflect the purity of his approach. All the wines are certified biodynamic by Demeter.
Make no mistake, these delicious Chateauneuf du Papes from Vieille Julienne are world class highly collectible, which would make excellent additions to your cellar.
We are thrilled to offer all of these wines at the lowest prices in the country.
JEB DUNNUCK 90 POINTS - "The 2022 Côtes Du Rhône Clavin is a little gem of a wine that has ripe darker cherry and blackberry fruits as well as some peppery, leather, and dried garrigue-like aromatics. It's medium-bodied, balanced, has fine tannins, and outstanding length. This is one of those wines that I always buy if I see it."
