Revoltier Chateau Fargueirol Chateauneuf-du-Pape Cuvee Antonin, Rhone, France 2015

Description

This Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Antonin is a bold, sun-soaked Rhône wine that leans into richness while still holding onto structure. The nose is immediately expressive, with ripe black cherry, blackberry compote, dried herbs, and cracked pepper, followed by hints of leather and warm stone that speak clearly to the appellation. On the palate, it’s full-bodied and generous, driven by ripe Grenache fruit, softened tannins, and a savory garrigue edge that keeps the wine from feeling heavy. Alcohol is present but well integrated, and the finish is long, warm, and spiced, lingering with notes of dark fruit and Provençal herbs.
