60% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 20% Mourvedre. Made with grapes from the Vieilles Vignes and Origines vines. Dense, opaque purple. Lovely nose of dark, jammy fruit. Juicy, ripe and concentrated dark cherry and blackberry fruit on the palate with some spice. Lovely, sweet intensity, medium weight and soft tannins. Really impressive for the vintage. Drink from 2011. Bancroft note.
''Only one red estate Chateauneuf du Pape was produced in 2008, and it is a very successful wine. Its dark ruby/purple color is followed by aromas of black cherries, black currants, licorice, and hints of garrigue and spice box. Well-made, medium-bodied, and richly fruity, it will be ideal for drinking in its first 5-6 years of life.'' 88-90 points by Robert Parker erobertparker.com
The Jaume family have been making wine here since 1826 and still own the same vineyards, with some 90-year-old vines still in production. Since Alain Jaume took over, the domaine has expanded to nearly 55 hectares spread across the Châteauneuf du Pape, Lirac, Côtes du Rhônes Villages "Les Champauvins", and Côtes du Rhône areas.
