lavender and mint blossom gracefully in the glass

indeed it is presently almost strict

accented by an iron note

the 2019 Geyserville is a wine to cellar for at least a few years

Eddie Feraud, Chateauneuf Du Pape other_regions_australia lavender and mint blossom gracefullyThe 2017 Chteauneuf Du Pape checks in 85% Grenache, 10% Mourvdre, and the balance a mix of varieties, all of which spent 18 months in foudre. Beautiful notes of blackcurrants, blueberries, violets, ground pepper, and sappy garrigue like nuances all emerge from this medium to full bodied effort that has outstanding purity of fruit, polished, ripe tannins, and a great finish. You could do much worse than to have a case of this in the cellar.
