Description
Thunevin-Calvet “Cuvée-Constance” 2019 from the Côtes-du-Roussillon-Villages in the foothills of the Pyrenees inland from the Mediterranean coast. NEW TO TOB.
50% Grenache, 30% Shiraz, balance is Carignan. Made by legendary Bordeaux winemaker Jean-Luc Thunevin, founder and winemaker at the iconic Château Valandraud in Saint-Émilion (see below), in partnership with Roussillon vigneron Jean-Roger Calvet.
Sultry fruit bomb and a complete crowd pleaser. Comparable in its voluminous/full-bodied/Grenache-based heavenliness to a young-vine Châteauneuf-du-Pape. High octane cherry jam aromatic explosion, fire-roasted marshmallows, and then a palate that is ripe, lush, textured and full. Serve at cellar temperature for a blissful taste experience.
Averages 4.1/5 on Vivino from 16 reviews.
