Domaine de la Biscarelle - Châteauneuf du Pape 2015

89% Grenache, 5% Syrah, 3% Cinsault, 2% Mourvèdre, 1% Terret Noir

The nose of this wine is dominated by black cherry and black raspberry aromas. On the palate, garrigue spice and black pepper mingle with the intense cherry fruit flavors.  Beneath the dark fruit in the wine are earthy sous bois (forest floor) and licorice notes, reminiscent of freshly raked autumn leaves, which add depth and complexity to this wine. The finish is long and balanced.  This is an elegant and complex Châteauneuf du Pape with a lot of character.    Though this wine is in no way a “modern” style wine, it is however surprisingly polished.  Only 433 cases produced
