Cellier des Princes
The original cooperative winery of Cellier des Princes is formed of some 3,200 hectares of vineyards in southeastern France, established in 1925 by a unique group of specialized winegrowers and producers of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, AOC Côtes-du-Rhône & Côtes-du-Rhône Villages and IGP Vaucluse. The three dominant grape varieties are Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre with Grenache remaining the main grape at 90 – 95% of their blends for its roundness, ampleness and elegance with tannins that mellow with age to reveal delicious fruit flavours such as strawberry and notes of thyme and rosemary.
