For centuries, Jean-Pierre Boisson’s ancestors have been both wine growers and blacksmiths. The family’s nickname “Caboche” derives from the old Provencal word for horseshoe nails, by which the estate is still known. Jean-Pierre is the former long-serving mayor of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Today, he runs Domaine Père Caboche with his daughter Emile.
Jean-Pierre is proud to follow a traditional approach to winemaking that respects the environment and allows for the vines to grow naturally.

2020 Chateauneuf-du-Pape La Mirande Blanc
Vegan
40% Clairette, 15% Grenache Blanc, 30% Bourboulenc, 15% Roussanne
The Chateauneuf-du-Pape vineyard is covered with pebbles with the highest density on the 17 acres located on the famous terror of La Crau, eroded gravel from the Rhone River. This contributes to the richness and concentration of wines. On this sea of pebbles, the vineyard offers different products, however its location on soils with subsoil varies. The clay and limestone component alleviates water stress on the vines, which is more and more pronounced with climate change and thus provides more flexibility in the wines. The proportion of sand varies from one soil to another which brings shades of elegance and finesse to the product.
