La Bastide Saint Dominique Chateauneuf-Du-Pape Rouge 2021

La Bastide Saint Dominique Chateauneuf-Du-Pape Rouge 2021Tasting Note Intense ruby wine with purple tints. Very intense nose of jammy red fruits, kirsch liqueur and black berries. After aeration, more complexity with notes of laurel, pepper, cardamom and resiny pine forest. An opulent attack in a crunchy style, with full bodied and elegant tannin.
