About the wine
Magnificent Grenache-based red from an iconic corner of Southern France
- Dripping with flavors like wild raspberry, ripe cherry and savory spice, this regal red hails from the historic region of Châteauneuf-du-Pape… a small sliver of southern Rhône Valley world-famous for luxurious Grenache blends.
- With your support, Ben’s dream of making this Angel-exclusive CNDP from the prestigious Château Saint-André vineyards came true. This vintage is fresh, young and enjoyable now – but will become more delectable with time, if you’re patient. If you can’t resist, decant it.
- A brilliant CNDP like this easily goes for $50+, but this red is here to show off its impressive flavor – not its price tag. Don’t hesitate – taste what the fuss is about!
Best before
This will age up to 15 years.
Serving advice
Serve cooler than room temperature and decant at least 1 hour before serving.
