Domaine des Pentelines

About Domaine des Pentelines

wned during 80 years by the Hardy family, the vineyard was built from scratch until reaching its peak of 24ha.The Kandler Family Wine Group has acquired this amazing place located in South Rhône Valley between Avignon, the UNESCO listed city of Popes, and Châteauneuf du Pape, known to produce the most famous Côtes du Rhône wines. The AB certified vineyard produces 100% organic wines on « galets roulés » (Peebles) soil which made Châteauneuf du Pape wines so famous. This soil gives amazing fresh and mineral tastes to the wines and the aromas are even more sublimated by the organic preserved grapes. A diverse varietals selection with a mix of young and old vines offers a unique choice to produce stylish premium red and white wines from Grenache Noir, Syrah, Carignan, Mourvèdre, Marselan, Cinsault, Clairette, Marsanne, Roussanne or Grenache Blanc. The Vineyard is orientated to the West and water is well drained thanks to its « Pentelines » which means « soft slopes » in local language and describes the litlle slopes running downhill towards the city of Avignon and from where you can admire the old fortified city of Popes. A new wine cellar is going to be built in order to be able to produce premium wines with the latest vinification technology and the same « grands crus » oak barrels that we use at Château Tourril in Languedoc. A guest house can accomodate visitors all year long with the possibility to share and pair wines with food.
