Skalli Grand Vin - Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Tiare du Pape 2007

Skalli Grand Vin - Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Tiare du Pape 2007

Award: IWC Red Winemaker of the Year 2009
Châteauneuf-du-Pape is the crown jewel and the foundation of Skalli Grand Vin du Rhône, which has been established for over a century in the popes’ summer residence. A tribute cuvée aged for 12 months in oak barrels and casks, offering delicate aromas of stewed stone fruits, red berries, and cherries. A harmonious blend of flavors, with pronounced yet well-integrated tannins, lends warmth and length to this complex and elegant wine. A truly great bottle!
