Chapelle Saint Théodoric "le Grand Pin" Châteauneuf-Du-Pape, 2021

Chapelle Saint Théodoric “Le Grand Pin” Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2021 is a beautifully focused Grenache from one of the Rhône’s most characterful appellations. Known for its purity, finesse and old-vine depth, it captures the warmth and elegance that have made Châteauneuf-du-Pape one of France’s most celebrated red wine regions.

Tasting Notes
This vintage typically shows a deep ruby color with a polished, translucent edge, reflecting the natural grace of Grenache. On the nose, expect expressive aromas of ripe red cherries, wild strawberries, dried herbs, rose petals and a subtle hint of garrigue, with earthy spice building in the glass. The palate is supple and layered, offering generous red berry fruit, fine tannins and a mineral-driven freshness that keeps the wine balanced and vibrant. While already appealing in youth, it should gain further nuance over the next 8 to 12 years, developing more savory, truffle-like complexity with age.

Production
Sourced from Châteauneuf-du-Pape in the southern Rhône, the wine reflects a terroir of sun-drenched vineyards, stony soils and warm Mediterranean influence that naturally favors Grenache. The grapes are typically harvested by hand to preserve quality and harvested at optimal ripeness, then vinified with a light-touch approach designed to emphasize elegance, perfume and site expression rather than heavy extraction.

Food & Serving
This wine is an excellent match for roast lamb, duck, grilled ribeye, game birds and Provençal dishes with thyme, rosemary and olives. Serve slightly cool at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if opened young to allow the aromatics and texture to fully open up.

Producer
Chapelle Saint Théodoric is a relatively small but highly respected project in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, admired for its meticulous, artisanal approach and its focus on expressing the finesse of Grenache. Though modest in scale, it has earned a strong reputation among Rhône enthusiasts for producing wines of purity, balance and remarkable detail.
