What it tastes like.

60 % Grenache Noir, 30 % Syrah, 8 % MourvΓ¨dre & 2 % Cinsault, Counoise, Muscardin & VaccarΓ¨se. Hand harvested and 100 % destemmed before fermentation over 15 to 20 days, with extraction via plunging the cap as required. Following the malolactic, a rigorous selection is performed and batches that do not meet the Estate’s quality criteria are sold in bulk. The selected batches are matured for 12 months in approximately 50 % barrels and 50 % stainless steel tanks. At this point another selection is made and any lesser batches are again sold in bulk. The final blend is then assembled in tank and matured for a further 6 months before bottling, then a further 4 to 6 months in bottle before it is available for shipping.

A well-composed, structured and refined Chateauneuf-du-Pape. The nose reveals notes of dark cherries, cassis, dried thyme, black pepper and a touch of violets. It's full-bodied with fine, firm tannins. The frame of tannins shape up the palate, with dark berries at the core. Plenty of spices and grilled herb character on the palate bring vibrancy and drive. Robust and focused, and the funneled finish has length.Β 96 points, James Suckling, April 2024.

About Mont Redon.

ChΓ’teauneuf-du-Pape (RhΓ΄ne Valley) Β·Est. 1923

ChΓ’teau Mont-Redon is ChΓ’teauneuf-du-Pape's largest estate, with 100 contiguous hectares of vineyard centred on the famous Plateau de Mont-Redon. Henri Plantin acquired the estate in 1923, before the ChΓ’teauneuf-du-Pape AOC was created in 1936; the oldest vines on the estate, planted by Plantin, are nearly a century old. The estate is now run by the fourth-generation Plantin descendants β€” Pierre Fabre and Yann Abeille of the Abeille-Fabre family. Holdings extend beyond ChΓ’teauneuf to CΓ΄tes-du-RhΓ΄ne (1980 acquisition) and Lirac (1997).

Bottle questions

Before you open it.

A few practical answers for storage, delivery, and choosing the right bottle.

How should I store it before opening?

Keep it somewhere cool, dark, and steady. Wine prefers cellar temperature; spirits are happier away from heat and direct sunlight.

How long will it keep once opened?

Wine changes quickly after opening; spirits and liqueurs generally hold longer if capped tightly and kept out of heat. If it is a special bottle, ask before opening and the team can give product-specific guidance.

Can I ask for a similar bottle?

Yes. Contact Caravan with this bottle name and the occasion; the team can suggest a close match, a safer gift, or a step up or down in price.

How is it packed for delivery?

Orders are packed in bottle-safe cartons. If anything arrives damaged or looks wrong, contact the team with your order number and a photo so they can sort the next step.

What about hot weather shipping?

The team avoids making one-size-fits-all promises around heat and carrier timing. For heat-sensitive or cellar bottles, contact Caravan before ordering and they can advise the safest dispatch window.

Why Caravan backs Mont Redon

ChΓ’teauneuf-du-Pape (RhΓ΄ne Valley)

Vines were grown on the estate then known as Mourredon as far back as 1334, when it belonged to the episcopal holdings at Avignon. The modern chΓ’teau dates from 1842, and 1923 marks the arrival of the Abeille and Fabre families who own it still; the estate celebrated its centenary in 2023. Pierre Fabre makes the wines.

Mont-Redon is one of the larger holdings in ChΓ’teauneuf-du-Pape at 100 hectares, a single vineyard covering most of the high plateau in the north-west of the appellation, with a further 33 hectares in Lirac and 22 in CΓ΄tes du RhΓ΄ne. The estate is certified HVE3, and total production across all its wines is around 90,000 dozen from roughly 850 tonnes of estate fruit.

Precision is the watchword in the cellar. Everything is de-stemmed and passed over an optical sorting system that removes unripe or sun-damaged berries and any plant matter, so only perfectly ripe fruit reaches the crusher. The whites are vinified separately before blending and held in stainless steel on fine lees for five months with no malolactic. Reds are co-fermented wherever possible in stainless steel, after which half the ChΓ’teauneuf and a third of the Lirac spend about twelve months in barrel, a fifth of it new, before being blended back into tank for bottling. The aim throughout is freshness and aromatic lift rather than weight.
