Cornelia Constanza Grenache Chateauneuf-Du-Pape 2007 75cl

This cuvée is a tribute to the last Princess Barberini and will delight those who love the Grenache varietal, being made solely with grapes grown in a parcel of Grenache vines over a hundred years old, situated on the slopes leading up to the “La Crau” plateau, a legendary area in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. A large proportion of this wine is aged in vats and the rest in 600-litre barrels called demi-muids. This cuvée is characterised by its great purity and really expresses the vintage and the terroir. In its youth, it offers an intense nose of cocoa and dark-fleshed fruits but, when kept for longer, notes of leather, tobacco and truffle develop to enrich the bouquet.
