David Allen, Master of Wine – our Wine Director – tastes this mature 2015 Chateauneuf du Papes from the Gonnet family’s Domaine Font de Michelle.
Domaine Font de Michelle is a popular wine producer from the Chateauneuf du Pape region. The domaine is best-known for its range of red and white Chateauneuf du Pape wines, but has also expanded its portfolio with the addition of several Côtes du Rhône wines.
Founder Etienne Gonnet established the 30ha (74 acre) domaine in 1950. His two sons, Jean and Michel, took over in 1975 and in turn passed their responsibilities on to their own children, Bertrand and Guillaume. The Gonnet family has also established Gonnet Pères et Fils to distribute its Domaine Font de Michelle and La Font du Vent wines, as well as Rhône Valley wines from a selection of winegrowers in the region.
