Domaine De Cristia
Owned by the Grangeon family for several generations, the Domaine de Cristia is located in Courthézon, a town located to the east of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. It covers 42 hectares divided between the Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Côtes-du-Rhône Villages, Côtes-du-Rhône and Vin de Pays appellations.
Description
Full, deep red, black tints. Blackberry and loganberry coulis and lozenges give a rich bouquet, comes with several layers of filling, and just a hint – welcome, given the sweetness – of violet flowers. The palate links well to the nose, also runs with a theme of juicy abundance. The ripeness and its surge lines the gums, and the tannins add another outer layer to the content. The density dictates that this is close to being a sipping wine.
Food Pairing
Lamb, Pork, Poultry
