Xavier Vignon’s Chateauneuf-du-Pape ‘Cuvée Anonyme’, his flagship wine, is assembled from up to 120 separate grape parcels, mostly from vines between 75 and 100 years old. The blend is typically grenache, mourvèdre and syrah (plus small amounts of other approved varieries), but proportions vary widely from year to year. The wine is matured for up to two years in a combination of concrete vats and French oak barrels of varying age and size. Drink young or cellar for up to 15 years. Vignon, based in the Rhône, is an influential and sought-after consultant with experience in New Zealand and U.S. as well as Alsace, Champagne and Bordeaux.

The most famous appellation of the region with a history of viticulture dating back to 1308, Châteauneuf-du-Pape is renowned for producing complex, spicy, full-bodied red wines of power and concentration. Up to 18 different varieties can be employed to make wine in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, but the vast majority of the red wine blends are still dominated by varying proportions of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. The greatest wines of the appellation can cellar for well over two decades. A smaller amount of complex, fuller bodied white wine, blended from Grenache Blanc, Rousanne, Clairette and Bourboulenc is also made.
