*Vintage may vary by location*

The wine displays a deep ruby robe with a light shade of dark purple which will fade with time. The nose is on the spices, thyme, breadcrumbs, roasted onion… at every nose you will find other perfumes… do not worry, you are not sick, it is simply that a good Châteauneuf evolves in the glass because of their high complexity. In the mouth, it is the roundness which predominates and invades progressively the palate…a walk in the forest, with scents of mushrooms, then passage in the kitchen with aromas of roasting, of grilled, of smoke, of meat marinade…but all of this without any aggressivity, on the opposite, tannins are silky, roundness, smoothness, velvet… For a complete happiness, it would be preferable to forget a little this bottle in your cellar…because this wine has not yet totally revealed himself at that time… To drink around 18/19°C on small or big game, roasted or pickled and/or on well ripened cheese.

Slightly oaky with notes of spices and dark berries, the 2023 Chateauneuf du Pape from Domaine Juliette Avril possesses a round, sappy and medium to full bodied palate with good depth at the core, concluding with a long, penetrating and fruity finish. This blend of 65% Grenache Noir, 25% Syrah and 10% Mourvedre is a great effort.

A well-made, balanced and seductive Chateauneuf-du-Pape made of grenache, syrah and mourvedre. Aromas of sweet berries, roasted meat and dried herbs, with hints of sweet spices. It's full-bodied with fine tannins. A juicy texture at the center, with succulent berry character. Focused and composed, with a delicious finish. Drink or hold.
