Brothers Thierry and Jean-Pierre Usseglio are craftingx000D some of the richest wines of Chateauneuf du Pape, working with low-yielding oldx000D vines and carrying out long, extractive macerations (25 to 30 days for thex000D basic wine and 35 days for their Cuvee de Mon Aieul). The Usseglios bought a destemmer in time for the 2001x000D harvest: because of the hydric stressx000D in August and early September, they knew in advance that the stems would bex000D greener. Accordingly, they destemmedx000D their syrah 100%, then followed up by destemming the grenache as well. The result is a set of wines with finerx000D tannins than ever before.
