Description du projet

2018 Domaine Pierre Usseglio & Fils Chateauneuf Du Pape

The 2018 Châteauneuf Du Pape is the classic cuvée of the estate and is based on 55% Grenache, 25% Syrah, 15% Mourvèdre, and the balance Cinsault that was raised mostly in concrete tank. It’s certainly worthy of a case purchase and has a gorgeous perfume of kirsch and blackberry fruits as well as loads of spiced meat, charcuteries, flowers, and garrigue. Medium to full-bodied, round, and elegant on the palate, it has the more frontend loaded style of the vintage, sweet tannins, and a great finish. It’s going to drink well for at least 10–12 years.
