Marcoux, Chateauneuf Du Pape Vv Vintage:2021 The middle weight plus flavors

The middle weight plus flavors exude a beguiling inner mouth perfume and a plenitude of minerality on the focused and almost painfully intense bitter cherry pit-infused finish

I'd hold this for at least 5 or 6 years and then enjoy it over the next 20

slightly austere style

The 2011 has plenty of up-front appeal

Masseto has a tremendous track record of aging

Marcoux, Chateauneuf Du Pape Vv Vintage:2021 The middle weight plus flavorsTasted from magnum at the domaine, the 2011 Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes is among the top few wines of this maligned vintage. Despite being one of the most alcoholic years ever recorded at the estate, there's no trace of heat, just a magical mix of ripe cherries and garrigue on the nose, plus a wonderfully supple, silky mouthfeel and a minutes long finish. While I would recommend drinking this wine over the next few years from 750 milliliter
