Wine SpectatorDescription
A full-bodied and fresh red wine from the Rhône Valley
The estate
Founded in 1874, the Domaine Santa Duc located at the foot of the Dentelles de Montmirail brings to life great wines from the Rhône Valley. Taking over from his father Edmond, Yves Gras has been steering the vineyard towards organic farming since 1985 and contributes to the development beyond borders of the renown of Gigondas wines. For six generations now, the Gras family has been expressing through its cuvées the nuances and identity of great terroirs of emblematic appellations such as Gigondas, Châteauneuf-du-Pape or the Côtes du Rhône.
The vineyard
The Habemus Papam cuvée from Domaine Santa Duc comes from a vineyard spread over 2.9 hectares. Located in the heart of the Rhône Valley, this estate evolves on soils composed of limestone, sand, clay and rolled pebbles. The vines, managed with organic and biodynamic farming, are on average 60 years old.
Vinification and aging
Following a selection in the vineyard and a sorting on the table, the destemmed berries undergo gravity-fed vatting. Fermentation lasts from 20 to 30 days and takes place in thermo-regulated stainless steel vats. Finally, this Châteauneuf-du-Pape wine is aged in foudres and terracotta jars for 18 months.
Blend
Grenache, syrah.
