Domaine Bois de Boursan Chateauneuf-du-Pape Red 2021
65% Grenache, 15% Mourvèdre, 15% Syrah, 5% other varieties
Organic grower. Vines from 27 parcels of varying terroir contribute to this wine. Clay and limestone and sand with many stones.
The grapes are not de-stemmed, the cuvaison lasts for three weeks and the wine is aged for 18 months in traditional foudre wooden vats before the wine is bottled unfiltered. The fruit is perfectly in balance with the texture of wine, showing typical dark fruit notes with hints of forest floor and good acidity. The wine has a firm structural backbone that will allow the wine to develop beautifully over a decade or more in certain vintages. A classic of the genre.

Producer profile
The Bois de Boursan, founded in 1955 by Jean Versino (Jean-Paul’s father), is a ten-hectare domaine with the entirety of its vineyards situated within the confines of the village of Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Working all of the permitted thirteen cepages for the appellation, the Versino family manages twenty-seven separate parcels of vineyards. The average age of the vines is in excess of fifty years. The domaine is worked organically without the use of chemical fertilizers or pesticides. Further, the vinification is traditional to its core: the grapes for the red are not destemmed, the cuvaison extends for at least three weeks and the elevage in wood of varying size and age is eighteen months or longer. The wines, both red and white, are ageworthy.
