Château de la Gardine
L'Immortelle Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend
Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
#AgedWineTuesday
Deep inky in color with a short brick rim.
Earthy nose with black fruits, forest floor, tobacco leaf, herbs, earth and black pepper.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with black currants, cooked plums, ripe cherries, spices, dark chocolates, coffee, black pepper, herbs and light vegetables.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.
This 24 year old GSM blend from Châteauneuf-du-Pape is still drinking beautifully, although definitely not in its peak anymore.
Still shows enough fruits, with lots of earth notes. So complex and interesting, with a very complex nose. Loved smelling on it for a while.
Good by itself or with food. I love trying these kind of aged wines.
A blend of equal amounts of Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah, from over 65 year old vines. Aged for 12 months in large oak barrels.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
92 points.
$200.
