Flavour Profile
Our No. 1 bestselling Rhône red, Le Prince de Courthézon is a gorgeous, velvety red wine that offers tremendous value. It’s from the only co-operative cellar in Châteauneuf-du-Pape and is owned and run by local growers.
The reason it’s not labelled Châteauneuf (and is not twice the price!) is that the grapes are from vineyards next door to the famed appellation. What they do share is the same rock-strewn soil that promotes superb richness and ripeness – and vines that are similarly aged and gnarled, which results in tiny quantities of concentrated fruit.
Created by the gifted Thierry Ferlay, it’s brimming with juicy raspberry, blackcurrant, cherry and black pepper spice with rounded tannins. A real gem on its own, or spot-on with a robust cassoulet, rack of lamb or grilled stuffed peppers.
