The 2022 Domaine Santa Duc Châteauneuf-du-Pape Le Pied de Baud is a distinctive Southern Rhône red showing blackberry, dark cherry and ripe plum with garrigue herbs, black pepper and earthy spice.

On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured, with fresh acidity, firm tannins and layers of dark fruit, savoury herbs and gentle spice. The finish is long, dry and persistent, with a subtle mineral edge.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Rhône drinkers seeking a structured Châteauneuf-du-Pape with savoury depth and cellaring potential. Best enjoyed from 2028–2042. Pair with braised beef cheeks, rosemary-crusted lamb, venison pie or roasted eggplant with lentils and herbs.

About the region

Rhône Valley · Châteauneuf-du-Pape

The Rhône is really two regions under one name. In the north, between Vienne and Valence, Syrah grows alone on steep granite terraces at Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, Cornas and Saint-Joseph, while Viognier makes the perfumed whites of Condrieu. Further south the valley widens and warms, and Grenache leads blends drawn from a long list of permitted varieties at Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas and Vacqueyras. The two halves share a river and little else.
