Description

France / Rhône / Châteauneuf-du-Pape

In 1990, Jean Paul Daumen took over the winery from his father and introduced sustainability in its purest form. The wines are aged entirely in large oak foudres, with no new wood used. Named after the Julienne family, founders of the winery in the 17th century, the Domaine has risen to the highest ranks of Châteauneuf since the 1998 vintage. The wines are unique in their character; each wine is a pristine, primordial original. From 75-year-old vines in the small 8.5-hectare top vineyard "Les Trois Sources," Jean Paul produces this exceptional Châteauneuf-du-Pape. It combines the elegance of a great Burgundy with the power of a classified Bordeaux. Truly magnificent!

Domaine de la Vieille Julienne

On the northern border of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, on the heights of the single site ‘lieu-dit Clavin’, Domaine de la Vieille Julienne was established in the 17th century and is now considered one of the leading estates of the region. Since 1990, the Domaine has been owned by Jean-Paul Daumen, who took over the estate from his father. He was the one who brought biodynamics in its purest form to the winery.

The vines for the very rare top Côtes du Rhône are on average 85 years old. On the heights of ‘lieu-dit Clavin’, sand and red clay cover the soils, producing vines that yield highly concentrated wines more comparable to a fresh Châteauneuf-du-Pape than to a Côtes du Rhône.

The Domaine’s vineyards cover around 15 hectares and are planted with the region’s traditional grape varieties, such as Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre.

The wines embody the essence of Châteauneuf-du-Pape and stand for tradition, quality and passion.
