The Estate

Domaine de la Charbonniere has always been deeply familial, with the fourth generation of the Maret family now in charge; the eldest daughter, Veronique Maret, took over winemaking responsibilities in 2007 and she and her sister Caroline have run operations since 2014 (though the entire family, including their mother, Mireille, and father, Michel, can still be found working hard in every aspect of the winemaking process).

Wine Making

Veronique’s most notable influences at Domaine de la Charbonniere have been to update and modernize the winery itself while also more adamantly employing organic winemaking practices. She brings new perspective and energy to a traditional estate that will surely find itself in the spotlight in vintages to come.

Food Suggestions

Pairs well with pork, rich fish such as salmon and tuna, mature and hard cheese, poultry dishes, and cured meat.

Jeb Dunnuck – 94

"Crushed citrus, lime, mint, and some chalky minerality all emerge from the 2021 Châteauneuf Du Pape Blanc, a vibrant, medium-bodied, fresher-styled white from Châteauneuf du Pape that shines for its purity, freshness, and focus. It's going to put on weight with a year in bottle and drink brilliantly for at least 3-4 years, and I suspect it will have an interesting evolution beyond that as well. Best after 2022."
