The estate and the wine |
|
|
Perched high above Châteauneuf-du-Pape and awarded a star by the French wine guide RVF, Château de la Font du Loup charms with its silky texture and refined style.
Spanning 20 hectares, the estate has been carefully tended by the Mélia family for four generations. From this north-facing terroir of pebbles and sand come wines full of freshness and vivid character—never overripe, always balanced. Their distinctive, airy personality makes them a favorite among top sommeliers and seasoned wine lovers alike. |

From a cool, elevated parcel on the famed La Crau plateau—aptly named “La Glacière”—the 2023 Red Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Crau reveals a vibrant, graceful expression full of charm and lightness. Delicate floral and fresh fruit aromas are laced with subtle spice, all carried by a refined structure with silky tannins. It’s a wine of elegance and poise, offering remarkable balance and immediate appeal. Rated 93/100 by the Selection Committee. |
