Vieilles Vignes

2009 Chateauneuf Du Pape 70% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 10% Mourvedre

Domaine Chante Cigale Vieilles Vignes is a remarkable expression of the Châteauneuf-du-Pape region, showcasing a harmonious blend of seventy percent Grenache, twenty percent Syrah, and ten percent Mourvèdre. This captivating red wine exhibits a deep garnet hue, indicative of its age and complexity. On the nose, it unfolds an inviting bouquet of dark berries, blackcurrants, and hints of spice, revealing the wine's rich fruit intensity. The palate is full-bodied with a lush mouthfeel, complemented by moderate acidity that keeps the wine lively and refreshing. Firm tannins provide structure, allowing the flavors to evolve beautifully with each sip. As it opens up, secondary notes of leather and earth emerge, adding depth to its character. Overall, this wine is well-balanced and offers an exquisite taste experience, making it an excellent choice to enjoy with hearty dishes or on its own as a luxurious indulgence.
