6 (1 x 6) 750ml

Domaine la Roquète is owned by the Brunier family of Vieux Télégraphe fame and is situated in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The property was purchased in 1986. The name is derived from the vineyard itself and today stretches over 30 hectares in the heart of the appellation. Production is mainly red wines, although a small amount of white Châteauneuf-du-Pape is also made.

Critics Ratings

‘Vivid red. Bright red berry, floral and mineral aromas are complicated by smoked meat and herbs. Very fresh on the palate, offering sweet red and dark berry flavors, gentle tannins and good back-end cut. There's a pinot-like precision to this wine that's really intriguing. Finishes brisk and clear.’ - Josh Raynolds, Vinous, 90/100 (Jan 2009)
