Domaine du Galet des Papes
Tradition Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend
Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
Ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.
Light on the nose, and medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity.
Showing red cherries, currants, plums, light chocolates, coffee, light wood and black pepper.
Nice tangy finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This is a very tasty 6 years old Grenache blend from Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Elegant and nicely balanced. Complex and interesting.
Good right out of the bottle, and better with airtime. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.
The high alcohol is already well integrated. Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.
A blend of 80% Grenache, 5% Syrah, 5% Cinsault, 5% Mourvedre and 5% Vaccarese, from 50 year old vines. Aged in large French oak barrels for 8 months.
15.5% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
$50.
