Domaine de Ferrand 2015 – Châteauneuf-du-Pape

The nose is fruity, aromatic and offers a fine concentration. It reveals notes of cherry cream, redcurrant and cassis associated with touches of blueberry, flowers (cornflower, rose) as well as an imperceptible / very discreet hint of vanilla (in the background), cocoa and nutmeg. The mouth is fruity, well-balanced, very finely tight and offers a nice mineral frame, freshness, straightness / tension, fat, fine juiciness as well as richness. In the mouth this wine expresses notes of strawberry jam, crushed raspberry and small notes of blackberry associated with fine touches of blueberry, caramelized oak, vanilla as well as a discreet hint of boxwood on the aftertaste. Tannins are well-built. Good length.
