About the Item

Here is a lovely Vintage French Châteauneuf-du-Pape Grape Hod. Originally made to be worn like a backpack to pick grapes, this vintage grape hod has been more recently hand painted with a black background and featuring the timeless Châteauneuf-du-Pape papal crest. Made to look like the Vatican City coat of arms, this traditional logo shows a papal three-crowned tiara (triregnum) above the keys of St.Peter with the words “Châteauneuf-du-Pape” (loosely translated to “The Popes New Castle”) around the top of the tiara. Looks great as a decorative accent by itself, with dried flowers or even as a log caddy for your fireplace. Can be hung on the wall if desired. Overall good condition with wear consistent with age and use as seen in pictures. Some minor scuffs and scratches as seen in the pictures. Overall good ready to display condition. Measures approx. 24.75”H x 23”W x 15”D More about the Châteauneuf-du-Pape wine region: Châteauneuf-du-Pape is a renowned wine appellation in the southern Rhône Valley of France. Here are key points about this wine and its region: History and Region Location: The appellation is situated around the village of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, near Avignon. Historical Significance: The name "Châteauneuf-du-Pape" means "The Pope's new castle," and it dates back to the 14th century when the papacy moved to Avignon. The popes were great promoters of viticulture in the region. Climate and Terroir: The region has a Mediterranean climate, characterized by hot summers and mild winters. The terroir is varied, with soils consisting of large pebbles (galets roulés), limestone, clay, and sandstone. These soil types contribute to the unique qualities of the wine. Wine Characteristics Grape Varieties: The appellation allows for 13 grape varieties. The main red grape is Grenache, often blended with Syrah, Mourvèdre, and others. White Châteauneuf-du-Pape is less common and can include varieties like Grenache Blanc, Roussanne, and Clairette. Styles and Flavor Profile: Red Châteauneuf-du-Pape: Typically full-bodied with high alcohol content, displaying flavors of dark fruits, herbs (notably lavender and thyme), spices, and earthiness. Tannins are usually well-structured, allowing for aging. White Châteauneuf-du-Pape: These wines are rich and aromatic, with flavors ranging from floral and citrus to honeyed and nutty notes. Production and Regulations Yield and Production Methods: Strict regulations govern production to maintain quality. These include limits on yield, vineyard practices, and wine-making techniques. Aging Potential: High-quality Châteauneuf-du-Pape wines have significant aging potential, often improving over decades. Notable Producers Some well-known producers of Châteauneuf-du-Pape include: Château de Beaucastel: Known for their traditional methods and complex, age-worthy wines. Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe: Produces powerful and elegant wines with great depth. Domaine de la Janasse: Recognized for their meticulous vineyard management and expressive wines. Food Pairing Châteauneuf-du-Pape pairs well with robust dishes such as: Grilled or roasted meats (lamb, beef, game). Rich stews and casseroles. Aged cheeses. Hearty vegetarian dishes with earthy flavors. Cultural Impact The wine of Châteauneuf-du-Pape has a prestigious reputation worldwide and is celebrated for its heritage, quality, and distinctive character. It continues to be a benchmark for Rhône Valley wines and is highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts alike.
