Domaine de Marcoux Chateauneuf du Pape Rouge Vieilles Vignes 2019 BreakThru dried marjoram and fennel seedThis is marked by a gorgeously pure core of kirsch and raspberry reduction flavors, which are laced with rooibos tea, singed balsam wood, dried anise, garrigue and warm stone notes. Extremely long, with a singular focal point to the finish as everything is pulled together by finely beaded acidity. A terrific wine. Best from 2025 through 2040. 480 cases made, 120 cases imported.
