Élodie Jaume comes from a family with deep roots in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, where she has developed her own approach to the southern Rhône's traditional varieties. Working with organically and biodynamically farmed vineyards, she makes wines that celebrate the generosity of the region while keeping freshness, elegance and drinkability firmly in focus. Her estate has become one of the Rhône producers we're particularly excited about.

Coudoulet Rouge comes from vineyards just outside Châteauneuf-du-Pape, on the stony limestone and clay soils of Coudoulet Est. A blend of 60% Grenache, 30% Mourvèdre and 10% Syrah, from vines averaging 35 years of age. The grapes are harvested by hand, fermented in concrete vats and aged for seven months in concrete before bottling without fining or filtration.

The 2024 is everything we love about a good Côtes du Rhône. Juicy black cherries, ripe plums, a little black pepper, thyme and that lovely savoury character of the southern Rhône. There's plenty of fruit and generosity, but also beautiful freshness and supple tannins that make it incredibly enjoyable.

A proper everyday Rhône red with a little more character than you'd expect. Roast chicken, grilled lamb, charcuterie or simply a good dinner at home. Very hard not to love this one.
