M. Chapoutier's Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Bernardine is a classic expression of this legendary southern Rhône appellation, crafted from vines planted on the famous Quaternary terrace with its distinctive surface of shingles from the ancient Rhône riverbed. This wine showcases the complexity and power that have made Châteauneuf-du-Pape one of France's most celebrated red wines.
Why You'll Love It
This is Châteauneuf-du-Pape with real character—complex yet subtle, spicy and fruity with remarkable depth. The 2022 vintage was challenging, requiring constant adaptation through drought and heat, but the result is a luminous wine with exceptional balance. M. Chapoutier's traditional vinification in concrete tanks ensures maximum extraction of colour and tannins, creating a wine with structure, elegance, and excellent ageing potential.
Vineyard & Production
Sourced from the Quaternary terrace in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, where the surface is covered with distinctive shingles (galets) from the former bed of the Rhône. The 2022 vintage presented challenges with drought and heat, requiring meticulous vineyard management and patience to achieve full maturity. Traditional vinification is carried out in closed concrete tanks with a vatting period of around 3 weeks at high temperature, ensuring maximum extraction of colour and tannins from the blend of different grape varieties that define this appellation.
Tasting Notes
Complex yet subtle nose with aromas of blackcurrant and plum, followed by roasted coffee, cinnamon, and morello cherry. On the palate, it's spicy and fruity with layers of dark fruit, warm spice, and fine tannins. The finish is long and satisfying with excellent structure and balance.
Perfect Pairings
A versatile wine that shines with tuna carpaccio, roasted meats, grilled lamb, beef bourguignon, duck confit, wild game, or medium-maturity cheeses. Also excellent with cassoulet, herb-crusted rack of lamb, or rich stews.

Evidence boundary
This page combines the recorded bottle identity with linked source records. An exact region-name match supplies regional context but does not prove that this bottle carries the protected designation. A vineyard is only shown as bottle-level evidence when a wine-to-vineyard link exists. BottlePicker does not infer a vineyard, soil or site climate from a retailer title.
