La Boutinière
La Boutinière produces wines from Southern Rhône's Châteauneuf-du-Pape, the region's most prestigious appellation. The winery's portfolio centers on the traditional Grenache-based reds of the area, blended with Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Cinsault—varieties that thrive in the region's sun-baked terroir and stony soils. The Vieilles Vignes La Crau Grand Réserve and Vieilles Vigne Grand Réserve showcase these classic combinations, drawing depth and structure from older vines. La Boutinière also produces a white Châteauneuf-du-Pape, built from Roussanne, Bourboulenc, Grenache Blanc, and Clairette—a blend that captures the Southern Rhône's capacity for mineral, textured whites alongside its celebrated reds. Wine Spectator and Wine Enthusiast have rated the winery's releases.
