Font du Loup 2024 "Les Demoiselles" Chateauneuf Du Pape

Tasting Notes

Composed primarily of Grenache and Syrah, this organically farmed cuvée is grown on sandy soils and aged in stainless steel to preserve its purity and freshness. The wine opens with perfumed aromas of ripe raspberry, wild strawberry, and red cherry, layered with violet, white pepper, and Provençal herbs. On the palate, it is refined and harmonious, offering pure red fruit flavors supported by silky tannins and vibrant acidity. The texture is smooth and graceful, with floral and spicy nuances unfolding through a long, delicate finish. Its translucent ruby hue with garnet reflections hints at its ethereal style, making it a beautifully balanced and feminine expression of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Ideal food pairings include roast duck, lamb tenderloin, ratatouille, aged cheeses, brie de Meaux, and marinated shrimp, where the wine’s freshness and spice elevate both savory and subtly sweet elements.
