This wine is still to be bottled and as such the advertised ABV maybe be subject to change on its eventual arrival and inspection into the U.K.

A small proportion of white grapes add lift to the expressive cassis fruit. Cherries, plums and raspberries offer a comforting complexity to the nose alongside aniseedy and liquorice varietal spice. A full bodied, round and approachable palate and super length. Really excellent. 3-12+ years.

Famille Gonnet

Since 2007, Famille Gonnet and the family brand for Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Font de Vent, has been run by cousins Guillaume and Bertrand Gonnet.

Guillaume learnt his trade with vintages at Leflaive in Puligny-Montrachet and Château Beau-Sejour Becot in St Emilion, with a year in the Napa Valley. They are the third generation of the family domaine, which was started in 1950 by their grandfather Etienne, although records show there has been Gonnets in Bédarrides since the 1600s. Fast forward and the domaine is fully organic, with Guillaume noting “organics makes our vines stronger preventing disease, as the vines go deeper into the soils”. Their aim is to create wines that drink well early and can cellar. They insist the style has not changed but rather has been refined and improved. Vines are around 50 to 110 years old and most wines are a field blend with around 75% Grenache as the base.
