Domaine Tourbillon Châteauneuf-du-Pape Vieilles Vignes red 2019

Composed of 60% Grenache, 15% Syrah and Mourvèdre, with the remainder made up of Cinsault and Muscardin, the Châteauneuf-du-Pape Vieilles Vignes 2019 was partially destemmed and aged entirely in concrete tanks. Sourced from the limestone soils of the lieu-dit Le Grand Deves, this sun-drenched vintage displays a deep ruby color and an intense bouquet of ripe dark fruits, candied cherry, spices and garrigue, with a subtle hint of licorice. The palate is full-bodied, generous and structured, driven by a rich texture, velvety tannins and excellent concentration. The 2019 vintage stands out for its controlled power and depth, while maintaining a fine balance. A complete wine, both expressive and built for ageing. Best enjoyed over the next 10 years.
