Dom. de Marcoux Châteauneuf-du-Pape Vieilles Vignes '19

A benchmark CdP with a deep ruby robe and captivating nose of kirsch, lavender honey, and tapenade. The palate showcases the domaine's signature finesse - supple yet structured with flavors of preserved plum, licorice root, and exotic spice box nuances. Biodynamically farmed from 90+ year old vines, the wine undergoes traditional fermentation and 18-month élevage in neutral oak, earning 95 points for its purity. The finish lasts minutes with hints of violet pastille and warm stone. Pair with crown roast of pork or truffled dishes. The sandy-clay soils of the lieux-dits Les Serres and Les Charbonnières yield this extraordinary balance of concentration and freshness.
