Clos des Papes Chateauneuf-du-Pape Red 2020 Magnum

The Clos des Papes offers us here a great red wine from the Rhône Valley in the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation, in the 2020 vintage. It is offered here in a 1.5-litre Magnum.

This 2020 Châteauneuf-du-Pape red from Clos des Papes offers a beautiful ruby colour and a beautiful nose of strawberry and blackcurrant with floral notes, sweet spices and chocolate. It is opulent on the palate, balanced between aromatic intensity, elegance, controlled acidity and freshness, with a very long finish.

It will be the perfect accompaniment to game, a deer fillet, a venison leg, a roast boar with pepper sauce, a roasted woodcock, a pheasant terrine or lamb tapenade. And if you're patient, its ageing potential is very good, at least until 2035.
