🏰 The Domaine Porte Rouge Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Ju 2023 is a new addition to the estate, crafted by Justine Feraud, part of the family known for Domaine du Pegau. This wine represents a modern style of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, utilizing whole bunch fermentation and aging in concrete eggs to preserve freshness. It is made following 'Vin-Nature' principles, meaning it's an organic wine with no added sulfites, unfiltered, and with minimal intervention. The blend for Cuvée Ju consists of 80% Grenache, 10% Cinsault, and 10% Mourvèdre. Tasting notes describe a pure, expressive fruit on the nose with flavors of Morello cherry, juicy black raspberry, violet, and garrigue. The palate is a subtle blend of raspberry, cherry, and sweet spices, offering a pure delight with silky tannins and remarkable freshness. 【A modern, natural, and fresh expression of Châteauneuf-du-Pape from a rising star winemaker】. 🍴 This vibrant red Rhône wine pairs wonderfully with grilled meats like lamb chops or beef tenderloin, hearty stews, or strong cheeses.
