Why choose this wine:

This exceptional wine pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as herb-crusted leg of lamb, duck breast with figs, or beef stew with porcini mushrooms. An essential cuvée for Rhône wine enthusiasts, ready to enjoy now or to cellar for years to come.

A perfect wine that's up with the top handful of wines in this incredible vintage, the 2016 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Collection Charles Giraud (60/40 Grenache and Mourvèdre) boasts a sensational nose of currants, cured meats, kirsch, exotic spices, and sandalwood. Deep, full-bodied and powerful, yet with an incredible sense of elegance and purity, it just glides across the palate and, despite its awesome intensity, it never seems heavy or over the top. Give it 2-3 years, and it will keep for two decades or more.
