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.

"Deep ruby-colored and offering a heavenly bouquet of black raspberries, toasted spiced, cured meats, licorice, and cured meats, the 2016 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Combes des Fous is awesome on the palate, with a silky, seamless profile that just keeps on going. Possessing ultra-fine tannin, no hard edges, and a huge finish, it’s a phenomenal bottle of wine. The fact that it was bottled just one month ago makes this showing even more impressive."
