Lot presentation

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Pierre Usseglio (Domaine) Jean-Pierre & Thierry Usseglio 2019

The wine

Faithful to its biodynamic principles, the domain produces a white Châteauneuf-du-Pape which opens up with notes of white-fleshed fruits, apricots and fresh almonds. Rather persistent, it can be enjoyed with sauce-based poultry dishes, creamy cheeses or refined fish.

About the Producer Raymond Usseglio

Domaine Usseglio is, first and foremost, the story of a family. In 1948 Francis Usseglio, an Italian labourer, came to Châteauneuf-du-Pape to work in the vineyards. His passion for wine and motivation led him to take on a few hectares of vines on a sharecropping basis known as métayage. His son Raymond took over from him, continuing the tradition but adding a modern touch by converting the vineyards to biodynamic. Today, the 24-hectare Domaine Usseglio is run by Francis' grandchildren, Jean-Pierre, Thierry and Stéphane and is one of the appellation's leading lights. Its grape varieties are typical for Châteauneuf with Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsault for red wine and Bourboulenc, Clairette and Grenache for white. The vines are between 30 and 60 years old and harvesting is carried out manually. The resulting wines have plenty of character, combining power with a hint of rustic simplicity.
