Tasting notes
The 2023 Domaine Grand Veneur Châteauneuf-du-Pape “Le Miocène” is a powerful, organically farmed red from the Southern Rhône, crafted from 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah, and 10% Mourvèdre. It reveals a deep ruby color and an expressive nose of ripe blackberry, black cherry, and sweet spices, with subtle notes of garrigue. The palate is full-bodied and structured, supported by firm yet refined tannins and vibrant acidity, leading to a long, concentrated finish that reflects the richness of this renowned terroir.
More About The Winery
Founded in 1826 by Mathieu Jaume, Domaine du Grand Veneur has grown into one of the leading family estates of the southern Rhône Valley. Today, the estate is managed by the 5th and 6th generations — Alain Jaume and his children Christophe, Sébastien, and Hélène — who continue a tradition of crafting wines that combine heritage, terroir, and modern precision.
Based in the northern part of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, the domaine spans 225 acres across four appellations: Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Côtes-du-Rhône (including Les Champauvins), Lirac, and Vacqueyras. While historically known for its whites, since 1995 the focus has been on powerful and expressive reds, alongside fresh whites and elegant rosés.
All vineyards are farmed under certified organic agriculture, with practices that include light plowing, natural compost, controlled yields, green harvesting, and meticulous hand harvesting and sorting. This commitment to detail ensures wines of concentration, finesse, and terroir expression.
