Châteauneuf-du-Pape Rouge Chateau des Fines Roches 2016 (750ml)
Country/Region: Rhone Valley, France
Background: N/A
Winemaking: N/A
Grapes: Grenache
Tasting note: Savory notes of dried garrigue and crushed earth juxtapose soft red plum and cherry. While luscious and ample, it's an elegantly subdued (rather than explosively fruity) blend of almost-equal parts Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. Smooth, integrated tannins accentuate its immediate approachability. Enjoy through 2026.
