Châteauneuf-du-Pape
92 pts Gilbert & Gaillard
Blend of Grenache and Syrah from plot selection, carefully hand picked with a small yield of 25hl/ha. The juice is vinified in wooden vats with long maceration and extraction by gentle punching down. The blend is then aged for 12 months in French oak barrels and then for another 12 months in concrete tanks and lightly filtered before bottling.
A very balanced, fresh and elegantChâteauneuf-du-Pape that sublimates the sweet fruity character of Grenache and this unique terroir
A wine to be kept or enjoyed young, perfect for grilled or braised red meats, game and bull meat.
"Deep color, some purple highlights. Generous nose of morello cherry, fine spices, chocolate and garrigue aromas. Opulent, warm and deep on thepalate ,with a gourmand style. A harmonious whole that conceals its power. Great persistence."(Gilbert & Gaillard 2023)
