    The wine

    Grenache, Clairette, Roussanne and Bourboulenc grapes, from vines growing partly in sandy soils and partly in clay soils, form this white Châteauneuf, which is pleasant even in its youth. Its visual aspect is creamy and elegant. It has an expressive bouquet, with accents of white fruits. The palate is lively and long, promising a great tasting experience.

    Information about domain Raymond Usseglio

    Domaine Usseglio is, first and foremost, the story of a family. In 1948 Francis Usseglio, an Italian labourer, came to Châteauneuf-du-Pape to work in the vineyards. His passion for wine and motivation led him to take on a few hectares of vines on a sharecropping basis known as métayage. His son Raymond took over from him, continuing the tradition but adding a modern touch by converting the vineyards to biodynamic. Today, the 24-hectare Domaine Usseglio is run by Francis' grandchildren, Jean-Pierre, Thierry and Stéphane and is one of the appellation's leading lights. Its grape varieties are typical for Châteauneuf with Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsault for red wine and Bourboulenc, Clairette and Grenache for white. The vines are between 30 and 60 years old and harvesting is carried out manually. The resulting wines have plenty of character, combining power with a hint of rustic simplicity.
