DOMAINE BOSQUET DES PAPES

The Boiron family have been making wine at their Châteauneuf-du-Pape property since 1860, handed on from father to son for five generations. Known since 1966 as Bosquet des Papes, Nicolas Boiron and wife Jeanne-Claire carry on the family traditions.

Grapes are handpicked and initially sorted on the stump, where the picker has two buckets. A second sorting of grapes is carried out on the tractor platform which will bring them to the cellar. What follows is classic winemaking work where nothing is left to chance.

The Boirons pursue a philosophy of technology allied with tradition, evolving to accomodate the modern way of consuming wine and steadfastly committed to sustainable farming.
