As at many family domaines with deep roots in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, vigneron Alexandre Favier was by his own account “raised in the vineyards”: Alexandre’s grandfather, Noël Sabon, is from one of the best known winemaking families in the region. Alexandre himself began his viticultural studies in Orange at the age of fifteen and passed the exams four years later in 2001. A year later (at age twenty!) he took over winemaking duties at the domaine when his father experienced health problems. Today, Domaine Chante Cigale is one of the most important family estates of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. 

This is a traditional house with 40 hectares of red grapes and 5 hectares of white. They have parcels in all of the main soil types of Châteauneuf and they vinify the top parcels separately. Only native yeasts are employed in the cellar, and the reds are mostly de-stemmed.

Vinified and aged in an ovoid concrete vat and selected from an outstanding terroir: this wine is truly “Haute Couture”. A classic blend of Roussanne and Grenache Blanc, the nose is very pure, mineral and saline coated by white fleshed peaches and stone fruits. This is a powerful and elegant white wine with hints of peaches and cream on the palate. Don't be shy - this wine can age beautifully up to 10 years.

Savour this delicious wine with Provencal and Mediterranean cuisine, foie gras, lobster, scallops or king prawns.

Only native yeasts are employed in the cellar and the hand harvested grapes are double sorted before being destemmed and lightly pressed. The resulting wine is deep red in colour,  showing layers of black fruit and fragrant liquorice spice aromas. Powerful mouth, fleshy and concentrated with dense but very fine grained tannins.  

A wine that will preform well with roasted meats - pigeon, lamb or peking duck. Also a fine match with sheep’s cheese.

Domaine André Aubert, has been formed over decades and generations by one very passionate wine family and today comprises of more than 280 hectares spread from north to south of the prestigious Southern Rhone Valley on the appellations Côtes du Rhône, Côtes du Rhône villages, Visan, and Grignan-les-Adhémar. The Château Le Grand Retour property was purchased in 1999.

Château le Grand Retour is situated in the Plan de Dieu AOC. This geographical area is overflowing with very important pebbles left behind by the Rhône River from millennia ago. As the Aubert family says, this vineyard allows the vines to 'drink the sun and live on stones.'

A sumptuous blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre with rich fruit aromas of black cherry and raspberry. Notes of licorice and spice dominate the full-bodied palate and lead to a well-balanced and complex finish. This wine punches above it's weight in every class!

A great pairing with grilled lamb, stuffed eggplant, kebabs or köfte.
