Description

Chateauneuf du Pape 2016
Cuvee Pure, Domaine la Barroche
2lbsl, 1lscl
Magnum (2)

Wines from the cellar of a SoCal industry insider. All wines purchased carefully and stored in a professional temperature and humidity controlled facility.

"There are nearly 300 cases of the nectar that is the 2016 Chateauneuf du Pape Pure. Produced from 100+-year-old Grenache vines grown in sandy soils, simply put, it's just awesome juice. A kaleidoscope of red fruits—cherries, raspberries and strawberries—swirl languorously across the palate, boasting great intensity while seeming weightless at the same time. Hints of dried herbs and spices add complexity to this luscious concoction, which must be tasted to be believed. Silky and endless, and showing no alcoholic heat on the finish, it's the poster child for great Grenache. Am I being too conservative at 99 points?" (99 pts. Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate, Aug. 2018)
