- A powerful and complex Chateauneuf-du-Pape, a versatile red to pair with a variety of foods.
A garnet colored wine with rich red fruit, truffle, anise and spice aromas. The palate delights with a blend of soft fruit (blackberry), pepper, licorice, smoke and tar flavors before a powerful finish of truffles and leather. A food wine, it possesses the aciditiy for game, but also pairs well with beef, steak au poivre, leg of lamb, or mushroom risotto. Drink now to 2012.
