Clos des Papes (Paul Avril)
Clos des Papes produces wines from Châteauneuf-du-Pape, the Southern Rhône's most prestigious appellation. The flagship red, built on Grenache, displays the variety's characteristic warmth and spice—hallmarks of the region's sun-exposed terroir. The white expression, also Grenache Blanc-based, captures the mineral precision and richness that distinguish top Châteauneuf whites. A secondary offering, Le Petit Vin d'Avril Blanc, blends Chardonnay and Marsanne, offering a lighter counterpoint to the estate's core range. Wines from the cellar have been assessed by Wine Spectator, Decanter, Wine Advocate, Falstaff, and Wine Enthusiast.
