Description
The quality of what could be considered the entry-level” cuvee from Barrot is the equivalent of most estate’s top wine, and the 2019 Chateauneuf-du-Pape Signature delivers the goods again. It’s almost too good and certainly not far behind the Pure cuvee. A blend of 60% Grenache, 19% Mourvedre, and the rest Cinsault, Syrah, Vaccarese, and Clairette Rose, brought up in foudre and demi-muid, it sports a head-turning bouquet of kirsch liqueur, blackberries, crushed herbs, and pepper. With a big mid-palate, full body, ripe tannins, and a rocking finish, it’s a no-brainer purchase that will last for two decades.
