Pierre Usseglio Chateauneuf-du-Pape 'NOT for YOU' 2019
$675.00
Description
A wine you don’t see often (there’s only one barrel made), the 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Not For You is 100% Grenache from the 100+ year old vines in the Les Serres lieu-dit, only made in the best vintages.
96-98 Points Wine Advocate, May 2022 "From the oldest vines of the estate, and not made every vintage (it was bottled previously in 2007, 2009 and 2016), the 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape Not For You was still in demi-muids at the time of my visit (it spends two full years in oak). Despite the wood influence, floral elements shine through the cedary notes, adding welcome nuance to the flavors of black cherries, plums and milk chocolate. It’s full-bodied and supple, with crisper acids than I would’ve expected, finishing clean and bright." A great pairing to charcuterie, red meat, game, a mushroom fricassee and cheeses.
