Chateauneuf du Pape, Domaine de Marcoux

Note:

I’ve had numerous bottles of the 2006 Chateauneuf du Pape recently and it is always impressive. Always a rough blend of 80% Grenache and 20% Syrah and Mourvèdre, aged all in concrete tanks, this classic beauty is loaded with notions of kirsch liqueur, wild strawberries, gamy meats and olive tapenade. Medium to full-bodied, seamless, silky and elegant, you can`t go wrong here, and this will provide immense drinking pleasure anytime over the coming decade (although I see no need to delay gratification).
