Château Montfaucon

Since his arrival he has increased the hectarage from 18 to 45 hectares and also rebuilt the wonderfully imposing château that lies just across the river from Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Rodolphe is keen to have Montfaucon granted its own appellation. The wines are certainly good enough and are full of personality. For now they remain as humble Côtes-du-Rhônes but when you taste, especially with some age on, you will quickly realise that they are anything but humble.
