Clos des Papes

Clos des Papes is one of the most esteemed estates in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, renowned for producing wines of exceptional balance, depth, and longevity. Owned by the Avril family for generations, Paul-Vincent Avril has continued the estate’s commitment to traditional winemaking and low-yield viticulture. The result is a portfolio of wines that seamlessly blend power and elegance.
The flagship Châteauneuf-du-Pape red, a blend of all permitted grape varieties, is celebrated for its purity of fruit, seamless structure, and ability to age gracefully for decades. The rare white Châteauneuf-du-Pape is equally impressive, showcasing richness and complexity while retaining remarkable freshness. Clos des Papes remains a reference point for classic, terroir-driven Southern Rhône wines.
