Chateauneurf du Pape was the summer retreat of the 14th century Avignon Popes. Apart from the history of Chateauneuf, visitors are attracted by the area's finely refined wines. There are over 70 domains where you can taste this prized wine. There are many restaurants in the village with an excellent menu du jour.
During the 14th century the Popes made this village their summer residence, and planted vines in and around it. Today Chateauneuf du Pape is famous throughout the world for the quality of its wines.
