For the last 15 years, oenologist Xavier Vignon has become internationally known for being the winemaker of several of the best domaines in Châteauneuf-du-Pape and around (La Nerthe, La Vieille Julienne, Beaurenard, La Mordorée, etc.)

 In 2002, some friends (who are wine importers) asked him if he can create his own wine. Choosing amongst the best wines he has made, he creates a blended Rhône with different vintages, and different appellations. His ideal wine, easy to understand, modern, powerful and a great value for money, 100% Xavier was born.

Xavier Vignon Cotes-Du-Rhône 2018 is a blend of 85% Grenache, 10% Syrah and 5% Mourvèdre. The Grenache vines are over 80 years old and the Mourvèdre vines are over 60 years old. Sourced from 76 parcels, mostly from the northern part of the Vaucluse, from various Terroirs, including galets roulés, sand, clay and limestone. The grapes were selected specifically for their high mineral salt content. The grape varieties are co-fermented and aged in concrete tanks. No oak aging.
