Clos des Papes is located in the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation, in the Rhône Valley. The family estate was created by Paul Avril and has been managed by his son Paul-Vincent Avril since 2009. The vineyard consists of 24 small plots spread over 32 hectares. The 13 varietals authorised for the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation are cultivated in this vineyard, but Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah are in the majority. Paul Avril produces two Clos des Papes cuvées: a red and a white. The estate is certified in organic farming.
