Maucoil's 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape is a blend of 60% Grenache, 15% each Mourvèdre and Syrah and 10% Cinsault, aged in a mix of demi-muids and older barriques. It kicks off with nicely herbal-floral notes of roses and garrigue, then adds raspberries and cherries on the nose, while the palate is medium to full-bodied and silky, finishing a bit tannic but mouthwatering and fresh.
