This is what we wine folk like to call a “steal”— a single-vineyard mix of Grenache, Syrah, Merlot, and a smattering of Clairette from Chateauneuf-du-Pape, which retails for less than half the cost of more conventional CdP. This charming, organic red benefits from superb terroir and careful winemaking at the hands of Jean-Paul Versino. Fresh and fruity, with earthy, spicy undertones, this is the perfect wine for cozy fall evenings, casual gatherings, and more. Try it with ratatouille or gratin Dauphinois!

Domaine Bois de Boursan

Founded in 1955 by Jean Versino, Domaine Bois de Boursan represents a “symphony of 13 grape varieties,” 27 vineyards with an average age of 50 years-old, planted across 10 hectares of organically farmed land in Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Today, the vineyard is managed by Jean-Paul Versino, Jean’s son, and no chemical fertilizers or pesticides are used anywhere on the property. Vinification here is traditional to its core: The grapes for the reds are not destemmed, the cuvaison extends for at least three weeks, and the elevage in wood of varying size and age is eighteen months or longer. The wines, both red and white, are incredibly complex and ageworthy.
