Domaine Barville Châteauneuf-du-Pape Roussanne
Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
Brotte Domaine Barville Châteauneuf-du-Pape Roussanne 2023, France
Pale gold in color.
Fruity nose with light oak, flowers, citrus, apples, spices, earth and herbs.
Medium bodied with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with lemons, green apples, earth and bitter herbs.
Long finish with limes and almonds.
This is a very tasty Roussanne from Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Well balanced, crisp and elegant. Complex, spicy and entertaining.
Feels like it has some aging potential, and would be interesting to revisit it in 5 years.
Good right out of the bottle and good by itself or with food. Better when not too cold.
100% Roussanne grapes were aged for 8 months in (30% new) French oak barrels. A small production of only 3,000 bottles.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
90 points.
$60.
