    The bouquet is a bit locked and show red fruits, some metal and minerals as well as garrigue. On the palate the same impressions in a fairly elegant wine, some dark fruits as well, juicy acidity and sticky tannin. Wait until 2020 – 2024

  • 2013 Domaine la Barroche Châteauneuf-du-Pape Signature 92 Points

    France, Rhône, Southern Rhône, Châteauneuf-du-Pape

    In 2013 no Cuvée Pure was made so the grapes were used for this wine, so the blend is slightly different from other vintages. In the 2013 there is 55% Grenache, 25% Mourvedre, 13% Syrah and 6% Cincsault …. 1% missing; I realize.. ;-). The wine is a bit earthy and rustic with good oak and vanilla. On the palate ripe dark and red berries, good herbs and spices, good acidity, a touch of sweetness and juicy tannin. Beautiful wine. 91 – 92?

    France, Rhône, Southern Rhône, Châteauneuf-du-Pape

    The bouquet is a bit locked at the moment. but it shows dark and red berry fruits. On the palate beautifully ripe dark and red berries, plums, laurel, herbs and spices, beautiful balance between acidity and sweetness, soft and round tannin with a pleasant bite and a good concentration. Beautiful wine already and a future of at least 5+ years.
