Pierre Usseglio Cuvee de Mon Aieul Chateauneuf Du Pape - 2018 (750ml) Size:750ml intense wine with superb purity99 Points, Editor's Choice Wine Enthusiast Streaks of black fig and boysenberry preserves extend from nose to finish in this pure fruited varietal Grenache sourced from 75 to 90 year old vines. Fermented in whole clusters, it's ripe but scintillating in freshness, accented by crushed thyme, stone and salt. Soft, almost feathery in tannins, it's a voluptuous wine with finesse and grace. Irresistible young, the wine will likely improve well past 2035.
