This tasting explores the diversity of two iconic French wine regions, bringing together the richness of Châteauneuf-du-Pape and the mineral precision of Chablis. Through the wines of L’Oratoire des Papes and Domaine Laroche, discover contrasting grape varieties, terroirs, and winemaking styles that showcase the remarkable breadth of French wine.
From the depth and Mediterranean character of the 2023 red Châteauneuf-du-Pape to the freshness and texture of the 2024 white Châteauneuf-du-Pape, this selection offers an opportunity to explore two very different expressions of the same appellation. The journey continues in Burgundy, comparing the vibrant minerality of Chablis Village with the added complexity and depth of a Premier Cru from old vines.
