Syrah, Mourvedre
37.5cl * Vegan * 15% ABV * Châteauneuf-du Pape, France
Deep ruby red in colour, with a black cherry core. This wine has lively berry fruits on the nose, with a touch of liquorice and a hint of black pepper. The Chateauneuf du Pape Rouge 2019 is full of fruit, juicy and round with ripe tannnins that gently support the cherry, cassis and herb character on the finish
"The base 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape checks in as 58% Grenache, 25% Syrah, and the rest Mourvèdre and Cinsault that was brought up in demi-muids and used barrels. Offering a rocking nose of kirsch liqueur toasted spices, candied orange, and garrigue, it hits the palate with full-bodied richness, an opulent, layered texture, silky tannins, and a great, great finish. This is a stunning classic cuvée to enjoy over the coming 10-15 years." Jeb Dunnuck
