La Mirande Chateauneuf du Pape (750ml - 15.5%)

From Domaine du Père Caboche, La Mirande Chateauneuf du Pape is a full-bodied red wine made by Jean Pierre Boisson. Drawn from vines over 45 years old, it comes from clay and chalk soils strewn with large galets, a defining feature of Chateauneuf du Pape that helps keep yields naturally low.

Hand-harvested and selectively sorted, this is a wine of structure and depth. Strong red and black fruit flavours are supported by earthy and herby notes, while freshness on the palate brings a nervy, lightly mentholated character. The finish is suave and rich, with supple ripe tannins, a clean woody aftertaste and a hint of liquorice. It pairs particularly well with traditional lamb, lentil and vegetable moussaka, or rich hot-pot dishes with herbes de Provence.
