Winemaker Notes: 

"Aromas include dark cherries, dark plums, blackberries, boysenberries, blueberries, dark chocolate, red peaches, and hints of vanilla and tobacco.  Flavors include blackberries, boysenberries, blueberries, and dark cherries.  There is a fully saturated medium body, perfect balance and acidity, and a long lingering finish.  As a final note, the rich sensory experience of the aromas with each sip results in wanting more and more sips of this wine." 

From the Importer: 

"Beautifully situated vineyards slightly northeast of the village (and next to the vineyards of Chateau Rayas) which produce very elegant and perfectly balanced Chateauneuf du Pape.  The expressiveness and elegance of their wines is from a broad variety of soil types in the vineyards which include sandy soils, sandstone, terraces of river stones, marls, limestone, and "safres" - a locally unique terroir of compacted sand which adds balance and minerality to their wines." 

Alcohol: 15%
