This is an exciting first release of Elodie Jaume's classified Châteauneuf-du-Pape
Across her plots herbal teas and biodynamic preparations are applied rigorously, area by area. These enhance the life and vitality of the soil and plants. Elodie’s fascination with biodynamics had come from time spent working at Cooper Mountain estate in Oregon, USA, followed by stints at other certified vineyards throughout the Rhône. She is deeply committed to organic farming and biodynamic practices are an obvious way to express the full identity of these great soils. In addition to this she hand sows cover crops in-between her rows to continue the addition of diversity in her vineyards.
From the outset, in order to better understand the intrinsic identity of each of its 8 plots, she made the choice to separate the grapes in small vats. Élodie has decided to vinify the wine as naturally as possible. After the first harvest she decided to cut out sulphur completely and the wines are made now with zero additions whatsoever. Maturing in concrete vats has also become important for her, giving the wines a fine tannic structure, delicacy and freshness.
