Unblended Roussanne is rarer still: by one recent count from the young producer Jean-Baptiste Souillard, only about ten growers in the region bottle it on its own. Pierre Gaillard was set on the idea after tasting Beaucastel’s Vieilles Vignes Châteauneuf early in his career. The fruit is drawn from several low-yielding sites in the far north of the appellation — the relatively cool granite plateau of Malleval at Les Dries, the Malleval slopes at Chartres, and Les Vessettes at Chavanay. The wine spent eight months in used Allier and Nevers barrels bought from growers in Chassagne and Pouilly-Fuissé, so the wood is thoroughly seasoned. This is a 375ml half bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrinking well now and holding four or five years. Serve at 10-12°C with roast pork, grilled chicken or a mild washed-rind cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
