Directly next-door to the famed Château Rayas, the wines of Font de Courtedune are hidden gems. Vigneron Caroline Charrier sees herself as a steward of the land, eschewing harsh farming practices in the vineyard and crafting her wines exclusively with whole-cluster fermentation and native yeasts. In the same vein, she relies primarily on neutral oak, crafting wines that are defined by vibrancy and purity - rather than the bold notes of new oak barrels.
I loved the 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape, a pretty, nicely balanced, elegant 2020 offering lots of red and black fruits as well as some floral, rose, and garrigue-like nuances. With fine tannins, a supple, layered mouthfeel, and outstanding length, it’s well worth seeking out. The blend is almost all Grenache, brought up all in concrete tanks.
