The CLOS ST JEAN estate was created in Châteauneuf du Pape in the early 1900s, and already enjoyed undeniable international success in the 1930s by exporting its wines to the United States in the finest restaurants of New York as soon as Prohibition ended.

The TOP winemakers of Rhône

In 1957, Guy Maurel took over the Domaine Clos St Jean and today, his grandchildren have succeeded him. The Clos Saint-Jean vineyard extends over more than 40 hectares, of which approximately 20 hectares are located on the famous Crau plateau. Only 1 hectare is dedicated to white Rhone wines with Grenache Blanc, Clairette and Roussanne. On the red Rhône wines side, the famous Clos Saint Jean Châteauneuf Combe des Fous (red) cuvée is a tribute to Guy Maurel, who ultimately persisted in planting vines on a combe, despite the advice of many of his peers. Deemed a "madman" by all his neighbors, he stood by his choice and today it is one of the estate's flagship cuvées. The reputation of the Clos St Jean estate is well established and the wines of Clos St Jean are renowned for being quite concentrated and massive, yet perfectly balanced. Yields are completely controlled here with debudding or green harvesting techniques, thus allowing the selection of the best grape clusters, concentrating the juices and improving the quality of the vineyard. The Grenache is aged in tanks to preserve its fruity balance and finesse. The other grape varieties are aged in barrels for one year. It is a full-bodied and generous wine that reveals its full potential over time. Clos Saint-Jean produces 5 red Châteauneuf-du-Pape cuvées and one white Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The Clos Saint Jean estate favors complete destemming, long macerations and aging in oak barrels or one-year-old demi-muids. Grenache is not aged in wood. Philippe Cambie has been the consulting oenologist since 2003, and the wines of Clos St Jean are recognized for their great complexity and power. The white Châteauneuf-du-Pape is produced in very small quantities, and it can be said that it represents one of the finest whites of the appellation. The red Châteauneuf du Pape from Clos St Jean is concentrated, indulgent with beautiful notes of garrigue, and it will improve for at least 10 years. The Clos Saint Jean Deus Ex Machina cuvée refers to the property's spirit of innovation and adaptation, in perpetual search of technical and qualitative improvements, the estate is ready to make substantial modifications to achieve the best possible result. In the end, the "Deus ex Machina" cuvée impresses with its incredible elegance, its chocolatey indulgence and its vibrant complexity on a consistently fleshy fruit with notes of leather, violet, amber and vanilla. It combines concentration, depth and perfect balance (the cuvée has obtained several times the critical score supreme of 100/100). Critics and wine enthusiasts are unanimous: the cuvées from the Clos St Jean estate are an absolute must-taste.
