Domaine de Beaurenard farms biodynamically and organically across Châteauneuf-du-Pape's mosaic of limestone bedrock, clay substrata with galets roulés (round pebbles), and fine sedimentary sand, blending all 13 permitted varieties with Grenache dominant in this 2021 vintage that survived April frost through late pruning and biodynamic valerian applications. Hand-harvested over 26 days from September 7 to October 8 despite 300mm of rain, old vines with tall shoots and airy bunches resisted humidity damage to reach full maturity at 14.5% ABV. Co-fermented with extended maceration for gentle extraction, the wine aged 12 months in conical vats, foudres, and barrels, delivering supple texture, refined tannins, red fruit, herbs, and the freshness characteristic of Châteauneuf's diversity where clay retains water, pebbles radiate heat for ripening, and limestone provides natural acidity.
