From 75-year-old Grenache grown in sandy soils, the 2021 Chateauneuf du Pape La Guigasse was fermented as whole clusters and will spend two whole years in older demi-muids. On the nose, intriguing spice, herbal and savory notes provide a compelling counterpoint to the cherry and raspberry fruit, while the medium to full-bodied palate is concentrated and rather sappy, finishing bright, fresh and long. The wine of the vintage?
A pretty, lifted style, with an inviting burst of cherry, lavender and grilled sandalwood notes on a bed of firming graphite and earth flavors, plus hints of mesquite ash and warm spices in the backdrop. Offering a somewhat lithe frame, this starts off juicy in feel, while a spine of graphite and firming tannins give direction, with a tug of earth and chewy tar at the close. Drink now through 2030. 130 cases imported.
