Chapoutier, Chateauneuf Du Pape Croix De Bois, 2020
🏰【A pure expression of Grenache from a biodynamically farmed vineyard, the 2020 M. Chapoutier Châteauneuf-du-Pape Croix de Bois is lauded for its elegant, vivacious, and floral profile, brimming with spicy kirsch and black raspberry notes.】 The 2020 vintage in the Southern Rhône was very good, producing ripe, concentrated, and balanced wines with a charming, rounded, and accessible style. This 100% Grenache wine, aged in concrete tanks, offers depth, concentration, and a long, supple finish. Expect notes of red cherries, dark cherries, flowers, sweet spices, and a crisp, bright character despite its structure.
🍴 This powerful red pairs wonderfully with roasted lamb, rich stews, game dishes, or strong aged cheeses.
🥂 Perfect for a celebratory dinner, a gathering with fellow wine lovers, or to enjoy over the next 15+ years as it continues to evolve.
