Chapelle Saint Theodoric Chateauneuf du Pape "La Guigasse" 2012
SKU
OOS-158_1
"La Guigasse" 100% Grenache, 50-100 year old vines growing in pure sand. Whole cluster ferment, indigenous yeast, aged in neutral barrel (very traditional winemaking). This "CdP" showcases the spice and sweet earthy qualities of the Grenache grape and the appellation. Smell & taste sassafras, roast wild herbs, kirsch, strawberry compote, cocoa, black pepper. Quite firm first-opened, it blossoms and smooths out with an hour (or two) decant.
