CLOS DU MONT OLIVET Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2021

Wine Region: Rhone-Valley - France

Grape: Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre, Cinsault

Tasting notes: The 2021 Châteauneuf-du-Pape matured for 20 months in a combination of foudre, concrete and steel tanks. This 2021 Châteauneuf-du-Pape offers up lively aromas of ripe red and black fruits, tomato leaf, cloves and dried herbs. It is a polished and layered full-bodied red with ripe tannins and bright acidity, capturing the freshness really well - By Nicolas Greinacher

About the winery:
Clos Du Mont-Olivet has been created in 1932 by Seraphin Sabon after his marriage to Marie Jausset. She was coming from the winegrower family in Chateauneuf-du-Pape and brought some vines in her dowry.
The 50 hectares vineyard is located in the South of Rhone Valley, France. 21 hectares belong to the prestigious appellation of Chateauneuf-Du-Pape, and Seraphin owns some of the most thought after plots such as "Palistor" and "Chemin de Sorgues".
The orientation of the vineyards, the local climates and the soils are all extremely varied and allow one to adapt the varietal to the particular plot or to play on the diverse expression of the same varietal.
