A wine full of very delicious aromas !

Presentation

Presentation
The Duclaux family is a very old family from Châteauneuf-du-Pape whose last descendant, Emmeline, was the godmother of Florence. Died in 2001 and without continuity, Florence and Jean-Baptiste now take care of the estate.
In gratitude to Emmeline, and to give continuity to this line of winegrowers which only lasts in memory, we have chosen to offer "Les Duclaux" to broaden the range produced and the estate.
Location
