Wishing to create a wine that is both complex and powerful, they have selected three of the best Châteauneuf-du-Pape vineyard sites. To the West of the village, ‘Beaurenard’, with its clay and limestone, develops the freshness of Syrah. In the Southeast, “Panisse” and “Bois-Dauphin”, with their sandy soils (covered with pebbles for the latter) develops the finesse of Grenache and Mourvèdre. This is a wine with great character and is the result of a unique collaboration of grape growers, aiming at revealing the exceptional personality and quality which is expressed by each site.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColor: Ruby tinged with purple highlights.\u003cbr\u003eNose: Lots of finesse with hints of warm spices, black fruits (cassis, blackberry, cherry) along with roasted notes and red peppercorns.\u003cbr\u003ePalate: Elegant with forest fruits dominating the front palate.

Hand harvesting in small crates to avoid berries’ crushing. De-stemming and sorting is followed by a natural fermentation and maceration of around 4 weeks. Cap plunging is carried out manually (no pump). The juices are funneled into French oak barrels (1yr old), where they age 18 months. The wine is bottled by gravity without filtration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brotte","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44571160183008,"sku":"120667","price":59.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/files\/b54e2829dc4bf4a48e2811cb32c148b9.jpg?v=1768257129","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/brotte-secret-barville-chateauneuf-du-pape-2020-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
