Description

Chateau de Husson dates back to 1890 when it the Southern Rhone Valley Domaine was created by the Granget family. When Jean Pierre Hugues and Anne Hugues purchased the property in 2008, they began a program of modernizing the estate, their vineyard practices and completely renovating their wine-making facilities.


They also shortened the name of the estate to Chateau Husson. The Hugues family were experienced winemakers by that time as they had been producing wine since 1986 in Luberon at Domaine de la Royere. Chateau de Husson was sold to Aubert Freres in 2015. Aubert Freres also owns Chateau Le Grand Retour in the Chateauneuf du Pape appellation.

Medium-bodied, soft, polished, fresh, bright, and fruity with earthy garrigue and olive character to the finish. The wine was made by blending 60% Grenache, 37% Mourvedre, and 3% Syrah.
