The Châteauneuf-du-Pape wines are rightfully the jewel in the crown of the Southern Rhône, coming from the area of the historic summer house of the Pope, north of Avignon.

Lifted berry-fruit nose, almost Burgundian in style with raspberry and cherry notes. A plush silky palate with firm but fine tannins. Immensely enjoyable now, but also will reward any length of cellaring into the next 12 years.
