The estate and the wine |
|
|
At the summit of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, awarded 3 stars by the RVF Guide, Domaine de Marcoux is undeniably one of the gems of the Southern Rhône. With a commitment to biodynamic farming, their wines exhibit a rare natural depth, energy, and power that require no artificial enhancement through aging. These iconic classics, defined by the mature Grenache grape, age beautifully and unquestionably lead the way! |

Carried by one of the greatest vintages of the decade, the 2020 red Châteauneuf-du-Pape combines full maturity and freshness of fruit with a mastery rare enough to be noted. The nose sparkles with black berries and spices, candied orange, and garrigue, in a very pleasant primary phase that will blend over time. The substantial mouthfeel, supported by a consistent juice, aromas of black fruits, spices, and dry herbs, impresses. The structure is precise, the tannins perfectly integrated, providing the necessary relief to counterbalance this level of richness. A potential of 20 years is emerging! Rated 97/100 by the Committee. |
