Domaine de Beaurenard Chateauneuf de Pape 2019

A blend of 65% Grenache, 15% Syrah, 10% Mourvèdre, and the rest a handful of varieties, the 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape was brought up in a mix of foudre and older barrels. This deep ruby/purple-hued effort has a pure, vibrant, incredibly seamless, medium to full-bodied style that carries classic notes of black raspberry and black cherry fruits as well as peppery herbs, violets, spring flowers, and sous bois. This is a straight-up gorgeous, seamless, ultra-fine 2019.  It has a rare mix of elegance, purity, and power, and it’s going to have two decades of prime drinking.  15% ABV
