Pere Anselme Chateauneuf-du-Pape La Fiole du Pape 750ml

Complete with a twisted bottle designed to look like it’s been aged—dust and all—this shows all the characteristics one expects from an approachable, juicy, and balanced Grenache-andSyrah-based CNP. The fruit shines through the high acidity, with plum and rhubarb taking the lead on a great mouthfeel. Garrigue notes develop and dry the palate a bit, showing a maturity and joining an accent of white pepper.
