Châteauneuf-du-Pape Vieilles Vignes Janasse 2009 is a full-bodied blended red wine from the southern Rhône Valley. It is crafted from a selection of old vines, predominantly planted on a mix of clay, sandy soils and `galets rouléts`, or rolled pebbles, contributing to its structure and depth. The maceration extends for 28 days, utilising daily punch-down techniques to enhance tannin extraction. Aged in foudres and demi-muids, the wine presents flavours of dark fruit, herbs and subtle spice.
