Great visit and tasting with Morgane who was perfect from start to finish! A touch of humor and a great desire to share her knowledge and a lot of dynamism. We didn't leave empty-handed because we enjoyed the wines so much. 🍷 Go there with your eyes closed 👍🏻

Excellent experience with Morgan as a conductor to discover the Châteauneuf du Pape terroir… Beautiful property and visit with lots of information and a lot of kindness from Morgan. Tasting on the Rhône coast as a super friendly wine merchant for friends… For the rest, we move on to the red wines of the estate, nothing to say, it is very well crafted... beautiful expression on the nose and beautiful bouquet of red fruits on the palate... Thank you for this visit and we look forward to meeting you again one day Morgan, for a nice tasting…

We really enjoyed the tour and the wine tasting. We received a very warm welcome, felt like we were among friends from the first minute and were able to ask all our questions and express our wishes. We got to know some outstanding wines and went home with several boxes of these treasures.

Our visit to Clos de Calvaire Winery in Châteauneuf-du-Pape was nothing short of exceptional! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by our guide, Morgan, whose passion and knowledge of the wines and the region made the experience truly unforgettable. Morgan led us through a delightful tour of the vineyard and cellar, sharing fascinating insights into the winemaking process and the history of the estate. The tasting was a highlight, with each wine perfectly presented and paired with thoughtful explanations of the flavors and terroir that define Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The wines themselves were outstanding, from the bold reds to the elegant whites, showcasing the rich complexity of the region. We left with many bottles to enjoy at home, but more than that, we left with a deeper appreciation for the craftsmanship behind each bottle. If you’re visiting the area, Clos de Calvaire is a must, and Morgan is the guide you want by your side to make it an unforgettable experience!
