Description
Domaine Les Escondudes Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2019 offers a remarkable blend of elegance and depth, reflective of its unique hidden valley terroir. This wine, crafted from 100% Grenache, is a testament to the estate’s commitment to showcasing the purest expression of its grapes. With a full and round mouthfeel, it features prominent licorice and spice notes that highlight the Grenache’s character, while its polished and fine tannins provide a sophisticated structure.
The aromatic profile of this Châteauneuf-du-Pape is captivating, with fragrant red berries such as redcurrant, ripe strawberry, and cherry, alongside a delicate spicy finish. The winemaking process includes a 20-day fermentation in stainless steel with daily cap punching, followed by 12 months of maturation in concrete tanks. This technique preserves the wine’s vibrant fruit character and enhances its elegant, nuanced profile. The 2019 vintage has garnered acclaim for its intensity and balance, making it a standout choice for pairing with roasted meats, game, and a variety of cheeses.
