“A barrel-maker born in Châteauneuf-du-Pape will eventually think of filling his barrels.” It came to no surprise when the Bouachon family, barrel-makers who had already been selecting grapes to produce wine for others, decided to fill their own barrels in 1898. Maison Bouachon developed its passion for terroir while seeking the utmost in quality. Close relations were established with growers from one generation to the next. Combining resources and know-how through solid partnerships made it possible to get the most out of vines and terroirs. Exceptional parcels were carefully selected. Grenache, the king of grape varieties in the southern Rhône valley, became central to blending and today, Maison Bouachon makes some of the most respected wines in all of the Southern Rhone Valley. Located just northeast of Chateauneuf du Pape, the terroir here is a mixture of gravel, clay, and stony soils. Grenache is the most important grape in the appellation.
