Since her debut 2003 vintage, Isabel Ferrando has established herself as one of Châteauneuf-du-Pape’s premier winemakers, earning widespread acclaim from top critics like Wine Spectator and Jeb Dunnuck for her uncompromising quality and profound releases. Starting with the purchase of Domaine Saint-Préfert—anchored by the historical, stone-rich Les Serres parcel—Ferrando expanded her estate while continually refining her approach through organic and biodynamic farming, low-intervention whole-cluster fermentations, and precise aging in neutral oak, amphora, and glass. Guided early on by legend Henri Bonneau, she transitioned in 2020 to focus on Châteauneuf's blending traditions under the consolidated Famille Isabel Ferrando label, featuring a single estate flagship alongside her renowned 100% Grenache Colombis. Today, joined by her daughter Guillemette and equipped with a state-of-the-art winery built in 2022, Ferrando continues to craft expressive, ethereal wines that represent the absolute pinnacle of the appellation.
