2019 Côtes-du-Rhône “La Papesse”
Domaine GramenonGramenon's cuvées, a product of biodynamic farming and careful natural winemaking, demonstrate the purity and finesse old-vine Grenache can achieve from the southern Rhône's most exciting terroirs. La Papesse is crafted from sixty-year-old vines high on a rocky plateau in the commune of Vinsobres, where elevation and abundant limestone combine to give taut, high-toned wines with delicate floral aromas and stimulating mineral freshness. The domaine advises decanting young vintages, but in good years like 2019 this seductive red can be cellared for upwards of a decade.
