Our first experience with Chateau Malijay was their excellent Côtes du Rhône wines, both white and red, marked by the signature elegance of their producer. So, naturally we asked if we could step up to the next level and Aude Deltin obliged, showing us this sublime Chateauneuf du Pape. Grenache dominant and supported by Mourvèdre and Syrah for some additional structure, this is a truly delicious wine!
Resting on the slopes of the Dentells de Montmirail and Mont Ventoux, Chateau Malijay is uniquely positioned to benefit from soft, warm sunshine all throughout the year, not to mention the breath-taking views! Pierre Deltin has sinced passed the reins to his daughter, Aude, and the estate has benefited from this injection of youthful energy. A naturally beautiful estate, a dedicated team and wonderful wines; what's not to love?

Eye The wine has a pretty but concentrated ruby colour, with softer, violet shades towards the rim
Nose Very aromatic and floral on the nose, with notes of violets, peony, blackberries, cherry and a spicy, herbal aromas. After a little time in the glass, notes of liquorice and mint start to become more expressive
Mouth On the palate this is a silky, sensual Chateauneuf du Pape. Soft, velvety tannins and an abundance of fruit. Delicious!
