A relatively unknown wine in France, where it is rarely distributed, this Châteauneuf-du-Pape is all the rage abroad, with critics having already homed in on this exclusive Rhône area. Composed mainly of Grenache grapes from old vines, this wine is extremely elegant and reveals notes of fresh red berries and refined, delicate tannins. The finish is extended with notes of fresh fruit and spices. To produce this wine, 50% of the harvest is destemmed and vinified traditionally. All grapes, with the exception of Mourvèdre, are fermented with native yeasts. Vinification is performed in concrete vats, with maceration lasting about 25 days and élevage in wooden tuns for a year and a half. An ultra-rare wine in France: miss this at your peril.
