The Famille Isabel Ferrando 2019 F601 Châteauneuf-du-Pape is one of the most rare and distinctive wines produced in the Southern Rhône. Crafted by Isabel Ferrando, this extraordinary cuvée is made from 100% old-vine Cinsault planted in 1928, offering a unique and refined expression of Châteauneuf-du-Pape rarely seen in the appellation.

Produced from the historic F601 parcel at the Saint-Préfert estate, this wine originates from an arid terroir composed of rolled pebbles, blue clay, quartz, and sandy soils—a classic yet distinctive combination that enhances both concentration and finesse.

With an extremely limited production of just 800 bottles per year, F601 is a true collector’s wine and one of the most sought-after bottlings from the Famille Isabel Ferrando portfolio.

The wine reflects Ferrando’s philosophy of elegance, purity, and terroir expression. While Châteauneuf-du-Pape is traditionally known for Grenache-dominant blends, F601 stands apart as a rare single-varietal Cinsault, showcasing remarkable delicacy, freshness, and aromatic complexity.

Tasting Notes

The 2019 vintage reveals a beautifully fresh and floral aromatic profile, with notes of dried herbs, blue flowers, rose petals, and violets.

On the palate, the wine is silky and refined, offering layers of black cherry, raspberry, pomegranate, and subtle licorice, supported by fine, elegant tannins and vibrant acidity.

The finish is long, delicate, and persistent, marked by floral nuances and a gentle mineral edge that reflects the uniqueness of the terroir.

Winemaking

  • Grapes: 100% Cinsault (planted in 1928)
  • Harvest: Hand-harvested and sorted
  • Fermentation: Whole-cluster fermentation in concrete tanks using indigenous yeasts
  • Aging: 18 months in 500L used French oak barrels (3–5 years old)
  • Production: ~800 bottles annually

This minimal-intervention approach preserves the purity and fragility of the old-vine Cinsault fruit.
