Châteauneuf-du-Pape is a historic commune in southeastern France, located in the Vaucluse department of the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region. The village is internationally renowned for its wine production and its rich viticultural heritage.
The name literally means "New Castle of the Pope" and refers to the time when the Roman Catholic papacy was based in nearby Avignon during the 14th century. The ruins of the medieval castle, built by Pope John XXII, still stand above the village as a testament to this period.
The village's cultural identity is deeply intertwined with its wine-making tradition, which dates back to the Roman era. The local terroir, characterized by its distinctive large pebbles known as 'galets roulés,' has played a crucial role in developing the area's celebrated wines. The village's architecture reflects its medieval origins, with narrow streets and traditional Provençal stone houses creating an authentic atmosphere that draws visitors interested in both cultural heritage and wine tourism.
