Domaine de Marcoux

Domaine de Marcoux belongs to the Armenier family, Châteauneuf-du-Pape growers for centuries and biodynamic pioneers since 1991 — long before the practice became fashionable. From parcels scattered across the appellation's sands, stones, and clays comes a style that stands apart from the region's heavyweights: silken, floral, almost Burgundian Grenache in which power arrives without weight. The Vieilles Vignes bottling, drawn from vines approaching their hundredth year, is the domaine's monument — a wine of kirsch, garrigue, and extraordinary length that ages with the appellation's best.
