Wine Expert Note:

The Domaine du Vieux Lazaret Cuvée Exceptionnelle Châteauneuf-du-Pape is a remarkable wine that showcases the excellence of the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation. On the nose, it offers an enticing bouquet of ripe dark fruits, such as blackberry and plum, accompanied by hints of spice, leather, and dried herbs. These complex aromas create an alluring invitation to explore further. On the palate, the Cuvée Exceptionnelle reveals its true character. It is full-bodied and velvety, with a harmonious balance between fruit, tannins, and acidity. The flavors of black cherry, blackcurrant, and licorice dominate, supported by subtle notes of tobacco and earthiness. The wine's structure is firm yet elegant, with well-integrated tannins that provide a long and satisfying finish. This Châteauneuf-du-Pape is a wine that can be enjoyed now, but it also has the potential to age gracefully for several years, allowing its flavors to further develop and evolve. It pairs wonderfully with hearty dishes such as roasted meats, game, or aged cheeses.
