Lovely and oily, with good body and clean lines. The taste goes on. 4/5. I'll have some more.

This wine definitely lets you know it is 15%!!!!! there's and almost fortified wine effect, but it is well balanced with a nice fruity nose and sweetness that makes for a good supping wine to sit in front of the fire with on a cold snowy night. MMMMMMMMM

Meet the Winemaker

Dominique Grangeon

"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!"
