Domaine Raymond Usseglio, Châteauneuf-du-Pape
"Of the three Usseglios,
Raymond produces the richest and fullest wines... a juicy, plump, chewy style of
Châteauneuf-du-Pape that can drink well for a decade."
(Robert M. Parker, Wines of the Rhône Valley, Dorling Kindersley)
Raymond Usseglio's father, Francis, came from Piemonte in
Northern Italy in 1931 and in 1948, after several years working for other
growers, acquired 8 hectares which eventually passed to his eldest son, Pierre.
Raymond had to build his own estate which he began in 1964. There are now 16 ha
in Châteauneuf-du-Pape and a further 5ha in the Côtes du Rhône appellation
spread over more than 30 parcels.
