2023 Chateau de la Font du Loup 'Les Demoiselles' Chateauneuf-du-Pape

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.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Jeb Dunnuck - "Already bottled (I believe, anyway), the 2023 Châteauneuf Du Pape Les Demoiselles checks in as 80% Grenache and 20% Syrah that was all destemmed and aged in a mix of concrete tanks and very old barrels. It has a medium-bodied, fresh, elegant, incredibly pretty style as well as lovely notes of ripe strawberries, raspberries, sappy flowers, and a hint of garrigue. I love its overall balance, and it has light tannins and outstanding length. Drink this charming, ethereal, Burgundian style Châteauneuf du Pape over the coming 5-7 years."
