This isn't just a wine. This is the wine that transforms your idea of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The 2016 Domaine Saint Gayan comes from an estate crowned by Robert Parker as “one of the traditional heavyweights of Gigondas.” A name synonymous with intensity, complexity, and wines that demand your attention.

Wine Spectator has gone so far as to call the 2016 vintage a “new benchmark,” and when you taste it, you’ll understand why. With the perfect balance of sun-drenched ripeness and cool night air preserving acidity, this wine doesn’t just sit in the glass—it leaps off the page. Bold, racy red fruits hit you first, then a wave of spice and earthiness lingers in the background, all carried by the smoothest tannins you’ve ever encountered. This is a wine that demands respect, and with only a few bottles left, you’re getting a rare opportunity to own a piece of history.

Crafted by the legendary Meffre family, who have been making wine in the Rhône for over 12 generations, this is no ordinary wine. The estate sits at the foot of the Dentelles de Montmirail, and it’s in this ancient terroir that the Meffres coax out every last ounce of flavor from their 100-year-old vines. The Grenache here is untouchable, perfectly balanced with a touch of spice that only comes from the region’s unique clay-limestone soils. It’s a wine that tells the story of this place—rich, deep, and uncompromising.

If you’ve been dreaming of the ultimate Châteauneuf-du-Pape, this is it. The 2016 Domaine Saint Gayan is a wine that will evolve in your cellar for years to come, but why wait? This wine deserves to be tasted now, and with critical acclaim pouring in from every corner of the wine world, it won’t last much longer.

88% Grenache, 6% Syrah and 6% Mourvèdre. The 2016 Domaine Saint Gayan bursts with ripe blackberries and cherries, accented by a touch of spicy pepper and earthy herbs. The texture is velvety, with smooth tannins that create a harmonious balance, while hints of licorice and mineral undertones add complexity. It’s a wine that opens up beautifully, revealing layers of flavor with every sip, finishing with a long, elegant aftertaste that lingers and invites you back for more.
