This week, he invites us to taste a Ch\u00e2teauneuf du Pape 2021, <a href=\"https:\/\/domainemayard.fr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Domaine Mayard<\/a>. First vintage for this new estate, created by Hugo and Arthur Mayard, the <sup>6th<\/sup> generation of the family. This cuv\u00e9e is made from a majority of 100-year-old Grenache (80%), complemented by Mourv\u00e8dre and Cinsault. The vines take root on the sandy terroirs of the northeastern part of the appellation, as well as on the famous &#8220;galets roul\u00e9s&#8221; (rounded pebbles) of the southern terroirs, each complementing the other to bring finesse and elegant substance.      <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grapes harvested at maturity are partially de-stemmed, placed in concrete vats and transformed by the action of indigenous yeasts without chemical inputs. Fermentation lasts 4 to 5 weeks, followed by 18 months of ageing before bottling. This first vintage is radiant, with notes of peony, faded rose, crushed strawberry and bitter orange on the nose, reminiscent of the wines of an eponymous estate in the region&#8230; The palate is suave and well-balanced, without sweetness, the wine is a harmony of aromas and flavors. There&#8217;s no doubt that if you cellar it for a few years, the magical result will reward your patience.   <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1052\" src=\"https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/LE-PASSEUR-DE-VIN-1440x1052.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5914\" srcset=\"https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/LE-PASSEUR-DE-VIN-1440x1052.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/LE-PASSEUR-DE-VIN-500x365.jpg 500w, https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/LE-PASSEUR-DE-VIN-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/LE-PASSEUR-DE-VIN-600x438.jpg 600w, https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/LE-PASSEUR-DE-VIN-900x657.jpg 900w, https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/LE-PASSEUR-DE-VIN-1200x877.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/LE-PASSEUR-DE-VIN-1600x1169.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Taste Pablo Nedelec&#8217;s latest wine discovery at Le Passeur de Vin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":22111,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"slim_seo":{"title":"Le Passeur de Vin | Restaurant | Edouard Amoiel","description":"Taste Pablo Nedelec's latest wine discovery at Le Passeur de Vin."},"_slim_seo_primary_term_category":0,"_slim_seo_primary_term_post_tag":0,"_slim_seo_primary_term_restaurants-par-lieux":0,"_slim_seo_primary_term_style-de-restaurant":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[411],"tags":[],"restaurants-par-lieux":[],"style-de-restaurant":[],"class_list":["post-22108","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bottle-food"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22108","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22108"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22108\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":22113,"href":"https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22108\/revisions\/22113"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/22111"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22108"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=22108"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=22108"},{"taxonomy":"restaurants-par-lieux","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/restaurants-par-lieux?post=22108"},{"taxonomy":"style-de-restaurant","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/amoiel.ch\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/style-de-restaurant?post=22108"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
