Winemaker Notes
A great wine to put in the cellar, from an absolutely outstanding vintage! Spicy, rich, and detailed, Domaine du Vieux Lazaret Châteauneuf-du-Pape Rouge Cuvee Exceptionelle has deep ruby purple color. Jammy red cherry, black raspberry nose. Lush velvety texture. Laced with spice and Herbs de Provence.
"Enjoyable is the 2000 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Exceptionnelle. Its deep ruby/purple color is followed by a spectacular nose of blackberry liqueur, cassis, and kirsch. Full-bodied and fruit-driven, it possesses loads of glycerin, a layered texture, exceptional purity, and a long finish."

The vineyards of Domaine du Vieux Lazaret are spread over 90 hectares, split into 35 different parcels of vines throughout Chateauneuf-du-Pape. It is today amongst the largest domains in Chateauneuf-du-Pape, with 80 hectares planted in red grape varieties and 10 planted with white grapes. The number of parcels enables the Domaine du Vieux Lazaret to give greater complexity to its wines due to the diversity of soils, grape types and differing ages of vines.
Harvesting of the grapes is done entirely by hand, with very strict selection of the best grapes to enhance the quality of the Domaine du Vieux Lazaret wine. This limits the maximum production, under the A.O.C laws, to 35 hectoliters per hectare.
