Château Cabrières Les Silex Châteauneuf Du Pape 2016

Blend of Grenache (80%), Syrah (20%). North of Avignon on the left bank of the Rhône, the territory of Châteauneuf-du-Pape extends over 5 municipalities between Orange and Avignon. It is a succession of clay-limestone plateaus with the famous rolled pebbles which allow the vines to resist the drought of the Mediterranean climate and the mistral.

The area of their AOC Châteauneuf-du-Pape vineyard is 20 hectares. It is spread over the three main terroirs of Châteauneuf-du-Pape: rolled pebbles, urgonniens and sands. This diversity contributes to obtaining the aromatic complexity of their wines.

Tasting Notes:

Beautiful ruby color. This wine is clean, brilliant. Pleasant nose, predominantly spicy, with aromas of red fruits. Fruity on the palate, it should be drunk young and can be kept for 4 to 5 years. The "Les Silex" cuvée will go well with red meat, game birds or a cheese platter.
