Passion des Papes - Châteauneuf-du-Pape AOP
Description
This wine is composed of Grenache and Syrah, the proportions of which vary according to the selection and the optimal blend of barrels. We however tend towards an equal distribution between the two varietals. Its soil is clay-limestone with rolled pebbles and safre.
This Châteauneuf-du-Pape, with its garnet colour and brilliant and concentrated substance, is a very expressive and complex wine, with tones of strawberries, spices and cocoa, that are very typical of Grenache. Velvety and mellow tannins on the palate, notes of prune, cherries in brandy, long and remarkably fresh.
The grapes are harvested manually, followed by rigorous sorting, destemming, pneumatic pressing and fining for three weeks in stainless steel vats.
For passionate gourmets.
To be consumed between : 4 years and 12 years
