Description
The Domaine Les Cassanets Côtes du Rhône 2021 is a remarkable gem that captures the essence of its prestigious surroundings while offering exceptional value. Situated just meters from the renowned Châteauneuf-du-Pape vineyards, this wine benefits from the same 'Galet' stone soils and expert craftsmanship that characterize the region's finest wines. The blend of 80% Grenache, 15% Syrah, and 5% Mourvèdre combines power, richness, and structure, resulting in a complex and elegant profile.
On the nose, you'll find inviting aromas of ripe red fruits, spices, thyme, and licorice. The palate reveals a balance of warmth and ripe fruitiness, with silky tannins and a long, spicy finish that adds depth and sophistication. Exceptionally well-made and harmonious, this wine pairs beautifully with roast lamb, game, or a hearty cassoulet. Whether enjoyed now or aged for a few years, Domaine Les Cassanets offers a taste of Châteauneuf-du-Pape prestige at an accessible price point.
