Domaine Pierre Usseglio

Domaine Pierre Usseglio, located in the village of Châteauneuf du Pape, has built a solid reputation over the years for producing rich, ripe red wines, so it’s interesting to see that winemaker Thierry Usseglio has been increasing the use of whole bunches and use of amphorae. This is in keeping with Thierry’s desire to produce fresher and more elegant Châteauneuf du Pape which will age well. While still rich and ripe, this is made in a very refined and elegant style.

Their yields are always very low at about 15 hl/ha, ensuring very high quality across the board. The domaine produces a wide range of Rhone wines, and I look forward to bringing them to you in the coming months.
