Vin beskrivelse
Cuvée de mon Aïeul er en special Cuvée fremstillet til hyldest af ”bedstefar” Francis Usseglio. Vinen fremstilles af 100% Grenache fra Grande Serres, La Crau og La Guigasse lieux-dit, ”Les Serres”, hvor vinstokkene blev plantet helt tilbage i 1926. Høstudbyttet til denne vin er ekstremt lavt, ca. 15-20 hl/ha, og produktionen derfor yderst beskeden med få tusinde flasker.
Model/Varenr.: 1973

"The 2015 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée de Mon Aïeul is another gorgeous wine from this family estate. As always it comes from three Grenache parcels: la Serres, La Crau and La Guigasse (there are 2 hectares in each parcel). In both 2015 and 2016 this cuvée wasn’t destemmed and was brought up mostly in tank, with 15-20% in demi-muids. This beauty offers the fine, finesse-driven style of the vintage, yet has full-bodied depth and richness as well as sensational notes of framboise, crushed flowers, licorice, Christmas fruitcake and spice. It’s in the top handful of wines in the vintage and will benefit from short-term cellaring and have 20+ years of overall longevity."
