L'Unique 2021

Vin de France

France - Vallée du Rhône

L'Unique, a gourmet cuvée made by the Pierre Usseglio family, well-known winemakers of Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
A wine made for lovers of fine Rhone Valley wines.

Made from sandy, silty and stony soils, this cuvée, which one might think is light, is in fact an aromatic explosion. The Usseglio family chose to completely de-stem the grapes before vinification, so as not to bring in too much tannin, but the blend chosen nevertheless makes it a serious wine.
