Domaine La Boutiniere Chateauneuf-du-Pape Tradition, Rhone, France.
A superb single domaine Chateauneuf made from really old vines (70 years +) 70% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 10% Mourvedre and 10% Cinsault make up the typical blend. Aged in large 'foudre' barrels for a minimum of 12 months.
A lovely ruby red with notes of mature red fruit and cassis. Beautiful notes of raspberries and balsamic tones lead way to long, velvety notes of vanilla and spice. A rich, delightfully satisfying red wine. Excellent with roasted meats and stews, particularly lamb.
Everthing you'd expect from an exceptional Chateauneuf-du-Pape.
