  • This is a wine you made. 
  • With your support, Dominique and Baptiste have made this gorgeously elegant and delicate wine, a good £2 a bottle cheaper than last year's VDP
  • Exclusive to Naked Wines, brilliant value, and a new star in the making

"Me and my brother, Baptiste, are the third generation of our family working at Domaine de Cristia. We started working here back in 1999, taking over from my father. The soils were in excellent condition thanks to Dad's biodynamic conception of agriculture. But trying to change old mentalities was a challenge! After our first few vintages, we really found our own style in 2003. That vintage produced some wonderful wine, and The Wine Advocate called us the 'New Superstars from Chateaueuf-du-Pape'. Winemaking is something I'm truly passionate about. And I love working with my brother Baptiste, who is an engine of energy, ideas, positivity and reassurance. But if I wasn't making wine, I'd be a professor of history, or an intrepid explorer a la Indiana Jones!"

Got 2 of these at home and drank one of them... Taste great and for the first time I got the taster pack which makes this bottle less then 5 quid and I think this taste like 15-20quid wine ;) Worth the money!

Lovely wine, light but with depth and full flavour. Good luck Dominique and Baptiste, it's a really fantastic wine.

Initially this is unpromising; the basic label and lightweight bottle suggest a humble, lowly priced offering from the local hypermarche that you bought on the first day of your summer hols, but then you taste the wine.....

Simply delicious. Fruit driven yet not at all one-dimensional. Punches well above its weight. Makes you want to try all other wines from this producer; I even splashed out on their Chateauneuf de Pape yesterday!

When will the 2010 arrive?
