Domaine Des Senechaux

The lay of the land

You’ll find us in the Southern Rhone, in that reputed plateau of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Five cultural blocks strong, our largest and most homogeneous plots are home to our primary red varietals: Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. On their South and South-West facing slopes, this trio make up 22.4 of our 27 hectares of vines. Meanwhile, our whites take 3 hectares of land at the highest point in the vineyard, contributing to the small number of refreshing whites produced in the region.

Ours is a story of stewards

It is a history as rich as these soils, sands and stones. Whilst our terroir has gained fame through the years, characterising our grapes, this is a story of the people who have cultivated our vineyards and guarded the quality of the Châteauneuf du Pape you drink today.
WINE PROPERTIES

Properties

Grenache Noir Châteauneuf ’s life blood. Warm, strong and sweet. Flavours of blackcurrant and blackberry, cherry, red plum and strawberry. Aromatic black pepper, lavender, thyme and liquorice.
Syrah A deep, blackening purple. Perfumed, seductive and brooding. Jam-like, rich, chewy, berry fruits. Notes of tar, smoke, bacon, chocolate and sometimes violets.
Mourvèdre Astringent, gamy, meaty and spicy. Flavours of blackberry, clove, tobacco and leather.
Mix 47% grenache noir, 32% syrah, 19% mourvèdre, 2% cinsault-vaccarèse
Nose Intense and expressive with youthful aromas dominated by fresh fruit (raspberry and cherry), delicately spiced and enhanced by an oaky note.
Palate Ample, fresh and fruity with ripe blackcurrant, raspberry and jammy sour cherry. Well-balanced with spicy flavours (liquorice and pepper). Complex, with soft resin notes and a touch of oak.
Finish Fine tannins for a smooth, very harmonious texture.
Grenache may dominate, but Syrah and Mourvèdre deliver balance and structure. Where Grenache is at its best when ripe, these two balance out its high alcohol levels. Where Grenache has a density of tannins that gives a round, full feel, these two give structure. Syrah also lends colour and body, as Mourvèdre lends class and a liveliness that is quite interesting to the final bottle.

 

We start with a Pope

We like to think it was the wine that drew the papacy to Avignon in the fourteenth century. In fact, our papal stewards restored our vineyards and viticulture practises, creating a wine replete with the character of the land and opening our borders to Europe. So beguiling was our wine that when the Pope returned to Rome, his cardinals dug in their heels: “How can you live a happy life without the nectar of the gods?”

Every story needs a name

Ours was gleaned when Pope John XXII built his summerhouse outside Avignon. “A new castle for the Pope” reverberated across the land, and the name stuck. Today we still call the region, châteaux and wine Châteauneuf-du-Pape!

A land where lavender grows

As time rolled over the land, wars were not able to permeate our terroir. But the renowned character of our wine was threatened by adulteration and fraud. The twentieth century saw Baron Pierre Le Roy establish the appellation for Châteauneuf-du-Pape. He drew a figurative line around the vineyards: Only land so infertile and arid that thyme and lavender would grow on it made the cut. His rules became the prototype for the entire Appellation Controlee system.

Into the Sheriff’s Wood

In the heart of the Baron’s boundaries sits the Sheriff’s Wood: Les Bois Sénéchaux. This plot is crucial to the success of one of the oldest vineyards in our region, so much so that it lends the property its name: Domaine des Sénéchaux. With a history dating back to the fourteenth century the property can be found in its current landscape in the 1950s, tended by the Raynaud family. They handed the reins to Pascal Roux who instigated an era of restoration.
Domaine Des Senechaux

Today’s custodians

Today’s custodians have taken the mantle from Pascal Roux. With thriving vineyards in Bordeaux, the Cazes family came to Domaine des Sénéchaux with a wealth of expertise and the drive to make a wine replete with the characteristics of the region. With Bernard Tranchecoste, who they entrust with the daily running of the land, they restored the vineyards to their former glory and modernised the estate. Since 2018, a new partnership with the Pradon family who became co-owners, has injected a new dynamic to the estate.
