2021 Chateau de la Font du Loup 'Les Demoiselles' Chateauneuf-du-Pape
Why Michael F. loves this wine: The result of owner Anne-Charlotte's daughter's request for a more graceful Chateauneuf-du-Pape after attending college in Burgundy, this is eminently drinkable with notes of bright cherry, allspice, savory elements, with great nuance, but yet the plush texture we know and love of Rhone blends. Lovely!
Winemaker Notes: Bright crimson, a nose of red fruits and fresh strawberries; a round, greedy and ample mouthfeel. With its bright, spicy red fruit aromas, this wine is exciting just to smell. Add to that flavors of raspberry and cream, a lush texture, generous weight and a long, spicy finish, and you have the complete package: it offers a fruity, easygoing palate that rewards early consumption. Pair with Grilled beef and lamb mice, Grilled lobster with butter and rosemary, Brie de Meaux, Roasted pumpkin, thyme and garlic.
