Established by Paul Avril in the early 20th Century, the estate makes one of the most sought-after wines in the region: Clos des Papes. The estate is made up of 24 small plots throughout the appellation totalling 32 hectares (79 acres). All of the 13 permitted grape varieties in the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation are grown in these vineyards, although Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah are the most important in terms of production. Picking is spread out to ensure maximum quality, and green harvests and strict berry selection ensure a low yield. Clos des Papes takes its name from one of its plots: a walled vineyard located near the ruins of the 14th Century Papal castle. There are two main wines associated with Clos des Papes: a red and a white wine. The red accounts for 90 percent of production and typically contains 65 percent Grenache, 20 percent Mourvèdre and 10 percent Syrah, with the remainder made up of the other permitted Châteauneuf-du-Pape varieties. The wine is known for its finesse and elegance, and is one of the most important wines in the AOC. The Clos des Papes blanc is made up of Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, Clairette, Bourboulenc and Picpoul, and is aged in stainless steel.\u003cbr\u003e","published_at":"2023-03-09T15:53:06-05:00","created_at":"2023-03-02T08:22:14-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","nini0203","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Paul Avril Clos des Papes","Region_Southern Rhone","Source_Hedonism0123","Type_White Wine","Varietal_Southern Rhone White Blend"],"price":44999,"price_min":44999,"price_max":44999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42814725685386,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2015 | Paul Avril Clos des Papes | Chateauneuf Du Pape Blanc","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":44999,"weight":12247,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/57_2932c32f-5bfd-45c7-8d2e-3c9fbb0e5098.png?v=1677763386"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/57_2932c32f-5bfd-45c7-8d2e-3c9fbb0e5098.png?v=1677763386","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2015 | Paul Avril Clos des Papes | Chateauneuf Du Pape Blanc at CaskCartel.com","id":24320472613002,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.388,"height":850,"width":330,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/57_2932c32f-5bfd-45c7-8d2e-3c9fbb0e5098.png?v=1677763386"},"aspect_ratio":0.388,"height":850,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/57_2932c32f-5bfd-45c7-8d2e-3c9fbb0e5098.png?v=1677763386","width":330}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eWhite Wine: 2015 | Paul Avril Clos des Papes | Chateauneuf Du Pape Blanc\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePale yellow.
