Chateauneuf-du-Pape, La Guigasse, Chapelle St. Theodoric

Note:

Scents of roses, licorice and black cherries mark the nose of the 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape La Guigasse, an all-Grenache cuvée from a sandy site near Rayas. Fermented as whole clusters and aging in demi-muids, it`s full-bodied and richly concentrated yet still silky and fine, although I did detect a touch of warmth on the peppery-spicy finish.
