Domaine des Senechaux Chateauneuf-Du-Pape 2021

An intense and expressive nose offering up youthful aromas dominated by fresh fruit (raspberry and cherry), delicately spiced and enhanced by an oaky note. Ample, fresh and fruity on the palate combining ripe red fruit with blackcurrant, raspberry and jammy sour cherry notes. Well-balanced structure revealing spicy flavors (licorice, pepper). Soft resin notes and a touch of oak give the wine beautiful complexity. Fine tannins ensure a smooth, very harmonious texture in the finish. Blend: 60% Grenache Noir, 20% Syrah, 20% Mourvèdre.

Layers of concentrated soft ripe fruit, hints of spice and great balance and length.

Domaine des Senechaux is best served with all types of classic meat dishes, veal, pork, beef, lamb, duck, game, roast chicken, roasted, braised, stewed dishes, sausage, barbecue and cassoulet.

94 Points - Wine Spectator

Dark, with a muscular core of blackberry, black currant and black Mission fig flavors that rumble through, laced with charcoal, cast iron and licorice root notes. Features a broad swath of tobacco and savoriness on the finish, lending cut and drive.
