Really interesting newsletter this month from The Wine Store.
It features Domaine de la Janasse and I must confess I have a particular interest as I’ll be down that way at the end of the month.
And the stones? ”.. the centre of the appellation where the quartz stones are also mixed in with limestone rocks. The quartz acts as a storage heater: absorbing the sun’s heat during the day and radiating back out at night, this helps with the ripening process...”
Domaine de la Janasse is a producer in this area who makes a wide range of wines, and not just the famous Châteauneuf du Pape. Domaine de la Janasse, situated to the north-east of Châteauneuf du Pape in the satellite town of Courthézon, is run by the Sabon family. This large estate's Châteauneuf du Pape's holdings are in predominantly two of the best communes of the appellation, Bedarrides and Courthézon.
Three of the Janasse wines are on offer this month for a reduced price of €40.00, including delivery! For more details go here and sign up for the newsletter as this is a subscriber only offer.
