This wine is produced by Domaine du Père Caboche, an estate that goes back to at least 1652, when it was owned by the Chambellan family; it was still in that family in 1777 when one of the daughters married Louis Boisson, and the Boissons continue in ownership to today. The current generation numbers Jean-Pierre Boisson, who has served for many years as mayor of Chateauneuf-du-Pape, and his daughter Emilie who effectively runs the estate The Elisabeth Chambellan cuvee is Grenache-driven, with some Syrah, Mourvedre, and several other Rhone grapes blended in, all from vines that are 80-100 years old; this is a wine with pure fruit on the nose, a wine of great character with beautiful density and volume and a combination of mineral,smoky, and spicy notes that linger on the palate.
