- Only red grape varieties are grown, including Grenache, Syrah, Carignan, Mourvèdre and Cinsault. The average age of the vineyard is 45 years, with some Grenaches over 80 years old.
- Wines produced: Vin de Table, Côtes du Rhône, AOC Rasteau - Vin Doux Naturels Rasteau. The grapes are harvested by hand and carefully sorted. The grapes are destemmed, pumped over, délestage and pigeage, depending on the type of wine we wish to produce. We monitor fermentation temperatures daily. Cuvaison lasts between 20 and 35 days. For ageing, we use amphorae, concrete vats or barrels, depending on the cuvée.

Domaine Grand Nicolet - Rasteau Vieilles Vignes 2019
4.4/5 (5 reviews)
91-93/100 Jeb Dunnuck
"The 2019 Rasteau Vieilles Vignes is composed of 60% Grenache, 25% Syrah and 15% Mourvèdre. It has been 80% de-stemmed and aged mainly in concrete tanks. This beauty is well worth seeking out, displaying classic Rasteau fleshy black fruits, as well as notes of roasted herbs, leather and pepper. With age, it shows more freshness and floral notes. It's full-bodied, with ripe tannins and exceptional length." (Jeb Dunnuck 2022)
Domaine Grand Nicolet - Rasteau Les Esqueyrons 2016
4.3/5 (3 reviews)
93/100 Robert Parker
-
92-94/100 Jeb Dunnuck
"The flagship cuvée is the 2016 Rasteau les Esqueyrons, a blend of 50% concrete-aged Grenache and 50% oak-aged Syrah. The nose is marked by baking spices and smoked meats, framing massive black fruit flavors (plums and black cherries) and adding welcome complexity. Full-bodied, rich and creamy, this extremely ripe, fleshy and intense wine will be enjoyed over the next few years to everyone's delight." (Wine Advocate 2018)
