The 2015 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Anonyme, supported by a vintage of substance, is a showcase of both power and finesse, with a clear dominance of Grenache, evident in its black fruit, floral, and spicy notes. Seamlessly layering a creamy texture with ripe tannins, it unfolds with fervent, spicy, and sumptuous juice. This powerful wine provides a perfect and true representation of the appellation. A major success rated 94/100 by Parker, it's offered at a unique price! |
