M.Chapoutier Châteauneuf du Pape rouge Croix de Bois 2020 0,75l

M. Chapoutier Châteauneuf-du-Pape Croix de Bois is a single-vineyard selection of old grenache vines rooted in clay-limestone soils covered with large pebbles near Bédarrides. The parcel is farmed biodynamically and the wine is made entirely from grenache. Aromas of red and dark cherries, wild berries and flowers mingle with sweet spice and a hint of licorice. On the palate it is full and juicy yet taut, with fine, sinewy tannins and bright freshness. The long, focused and elegant finish gives Croix de Bois great finesse and ageing potential. It pairs beautifully with lamb, game birds, braised beef and mature hard cheeses.
