🏰The 2019 Domaine Tour Saint-Michel Chateauneuf-du-Pape Le Lien hails from an 【extremely strong Rhône Valley vintage】 and is crafted from 100% old vine Grenache, showcasing the purity and power of this noble grape. This family property, managed by Mireille since 2007, blends tradition with a modern style, resulting in a wine that is both classic and contemporary. This wine presents a deep ruby/plum hue with an expressive bouquet of flowers, kirsch, cherry, black raspberries, and nuances of peppery herbs and liquorice. The palate is powerful and elegant, medium-bodied with sweet, ripe, spiced layers of red berries, supported by silky, complex, and ripe tannins, leading to a peppery finish. 🍴 A natural partner for lamb, this Chateauneuf-du-Pape also excels with game, fillet of beef in a crust, venison steaks, or even a rich brie with truffles. 🥂 This Grenache lover's dream is built to age, benefiting from 2-4 years of bottle age and capable of cruising for a decade, maintaining its peak through 2030 at least. Serve at 16-18°C to fully appreciate its complexity.
