Description
The Domaine Juliette Avril’s roots run long and deep. As First Consuls of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, the Avril family has cultivated centuries of winegrowing and Provençal tradition. As early as 1928, before the Appellation of Controlled Origin (A.O.C.) was officially introduced, Juliette Avril’s father, Jean Avril, along with other local notable figures, participated in establishing fundamental rules for developing Châteauneuf-du-Pape wine. A blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre, it offers aromas and flavors of cherries and raspberries followed by spices, pepper and a hint of licorice. On the palate this possesses a medium body, which has a lovely texture and balance!
