Plush, juicy and richly flavoured southern French red wine from the heart of the Rhone Valley in Châteauneuf-du-Pape where up to 13 grapes comprise the blend. Smooth with the pleasant bite of dark pepper. Pair with brontosaurus burgers.

Châteauneuf-Du-Pape food pairings: grilled bison strip steaks, spice-braised lamb, veal chops.

Reviews and Ratings

Courtil and Thibaut, Proprietors and growers are one of the few Châteauneuf du Pape producers who make a single wine. The blend for the Clos Des Brusquières (2013) Châteauneuf du Pape is 80% Grenache with the balance in Syrah and Mourvèdre. Grapevines are 85 years of age. The wine is aged different vessels, depending the grape variety. Lots of vibrant red fruit, smoke and minerality on this typical, Burgundian-style Pape. - Community Wine Reviews
