The Domaine Saint Préfert Châteauneuf-du-Pape Collection Charles Giraud 2011 is a prestigious cuvée, blending 60% Grenache and 40% Mourvèdre from old vines rooted in the emblematic terroirs of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. This wine displays a bright ruby hue and a complex bouquet of ripe red and blue fruits, Moroccan spices, and floral notes, enhanced by a vibrant mineral touch. On the palate, it offers a sweet, expansive texture, with densely packed flavors of raspberry, boysenberry, and spice cake, showcasing outstanding clarity and remarkable back-end power. Smooth tannins support an extremely long, sappy finish.

Why choose this wine:

Rated 93/100 by The Wine Cellar Insider, the Domaine Saint Préfert Collection Charles Giraud 2011 is renowned for its balance between aromatic richness and elegance. This 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.

Also impressive was the 2011 Domaine Saint Préfert Châteauneuf-du-Pape Collection Charles Giraud. Tasted as a barrel sample and up there with the best of the vintage, it possesses knockout aromatics of smoked meats, blackberry, grilled toast, and roasted herbs to go with a full-bodied, voluptuous texture, beautiful purity of fruit, and ripe tannin that gives some focus to the finish. It is already upfront and approachable, yet should drink well
