{"product_id":"2023-chateauneuf-du-pape-rouge-domaine-du-banneret","title":"2023 Châteauneuf du Pape Rouge, Domaine du Banneret","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe 2023 Châteauneuf-du-Pape from Domaine du Banneret is superb, wafting from the glass with a perfumed bouquet of peonies, wildflowers, dark cherries, red berries and garrigue. Medium- to full-bodied, suave and seamless, it’s layered and textural, with a delicate, juicy core of fruit framed by velvety tannins and concluding with an expansive, lingering finish. This is arguably one of the finest wines ever produced at this address—and without contest, one of the wines of the vintage. It’s a blend of 50% Grenache Noir, 15% Syrah, 10% Mourvèdre and the remainder made up of small percentages of the other permitted varieties. Domaine du Banneret holds a legendary reputation in Châteauneuf-du-Pape not because of massive production or flashy marketing, but due to its traditional winemaking methods, authentic expression of terroir, and a deep-rooted family history that prioritizes quality over quantity. The vineyard spans only 3.5 hectares, planted with all 13 permitted grape varieties, as per AOC rules, which is rare today. 97\/100 Yohan Castaing, The Wine Advocate \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe estate was founded in 1989 by Jean-Claude Vidal, but the vineyards themselves are ancient—some vines over 100 years old, it is now run by his Daughter, Audrey Vidal. Domaine du Banneret is very special because it’s a rare surviving example of what Châteauneuf-du-Pape used to be. It offers soulful, structured, age-worthy wines made with low intervention and deep respect for the land—crafted in such tiny quantities that they’ve become almost mythical. After a long wait, I am very happy to be able to offer them to you in Australia. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bois de Boursan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45351401423033,"sku":null,"price":165.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0161\/5184\/files\/banneret_23bced89-cb37-47ae-ad9e-200173fd15be.png?v=1758517651","url":"https:\/\/www.andrewguard.com.au\/products\/2023-chateauneuf-du-pape-rouge-domaine-du-banneret","provider":"Andrew Guard","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
