Château Maucoil’s vineyards are located in the northwest of the Châteauneuf du Pape area, on the left bank of the River Rhône, and on the appellation’s three soil types: pebbles, Urgonian and sand.
VINEYARDS AND TERROIR
From the Domaine’s youngest vines (40 years on average), planted with 4 grape varieties on sandy and pebbly soils. The yield is around 25 hl/ha and harvesting is carried out by hand, with the grappe individually sorted before vinification.
GRAPE VARIETIES
Grenache noir (60%) Syrah (15%) Mourvèdre (15%) Cinsault (10%)
PRODUCTION
The grapes are sorted and go into concrete tanks, by grape variety and by parcel. After around 30 days in vat, with pumping over, rack-andreturn and punching down, the wines undergo a mixed ageing, in vats and in barrels previously used for one vintage, before being blended.
TASTING NOTES
Strong ruby red hue with a beautiful shine. Very fine on the nose with superb black fruit and spicy notes. Delightful and intense on the palate, with lovely balance and great elegance, from the moment it is bottled.
SERVING AND FOOD PAIRINGS
16-17°C. Decanting is advisable if the wine is opened when young (under 5 years). Delicious with beef stew or casserole or mushroom risotto. Can be laid down for up to 10 years.
