Vin beskrivelse

Cuvée La Combe des Fous ("Tåbernes kløft") er produceret på basis af primært Grenache fra en parcel i "La Crau", der i fordoms tid blev betragtet som værende for svær at dyrke. Maurel'ernes oldefar var "tåbelig" nok til at plante bl.a. Grenache her og som man kan smage er resultatet fremragende. Vinen er fremstillet af 60 % Grenache tilsat barrique lageret Syrah og en smule Cinsault m.m.

Wine Spectator (96 points):
"Pumps out heady raspberry, mulberry and blackberry compote notes that keep form and direction, thanks to a roasted apple wood spine and flanking ganache, garrigue and warm earth notes. Seriously grippy finish. Grenache, Syrah, Cinsault and Vaccarèse. Best from 2025 through 2040."

Jeb Dunnuck (96 points):
"The 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape La Combe Des Fous is all about finesse and elegance, probably due to the inclusion of Cinsault and Vaccarese in the blend. Deeper ruby/purple-hued, it has an exotic perfume of both red and blue fruits, smoked game, spring flowers, and peppery herbs. Slightly darker fruited than past vintages were at this stage, it's medium to full-bodied on the palate, has gorgeous tannins, a layered, seamless mouthfeel, and a great finish. This beauty already offers incredible pleasure yet will evolve gracefully over the coming 15-20 years."
