Val de Dieu Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2016 Vintage Overview

2016 OVERVIEW

Chateau de Vaudieu Val de Dieu Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2016 is a sumptuous, deeply fruited wine, layering blackberries and dark plum over ripe raspberry with a lavish cloak of sweet spice and roasted coffee notes from its élevage. The palate is opulent yet finely balanced by vibrant acidity, giving definition to its velvety texture and leading into a long, warming finish with a touch of dark tea and mineral grip. A powerful but polished expression of Grenache-led Châteauneuf that promises even greater nuance with time in bottle.
