Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Barroche (Domaine de) Signature Julien Barrot 2018

Remaining true to its passion for Grenache, the domain produces the Signature cuvée, dominated by the aforementioned grape and complemented with Mourvèdre, Syrah and Cinsault. Mourvèdre and Syrah are matured on fine lees in Burgundy barrique barrels used two or three times before. The other grape varieties are matured in wooden tuns, stainless steel and steel vats. The wine is then matured for a year and a half and bottled without filtration. Powerful and delicate, it reveals itself firstly through a pretty dark red colour hinting at the black berry aromas and spicy notes to follow. The palate is marked by seductive flavours in the same register, and assertive tannins that are refined with time. A wine to be enjoyed with a goulash.
