Chateau Juliette April is one of the oldest wineries in the Chateau Nouveau Pape. With the concerted efforts of several generations of The April family, the wines of the estate are widely recognized.
The 2015 vintage has a beautiful deep garnet red colour and is very special in colour. It is recommended to wake up the wine if you want to drink it when it is young. Historically, the 2004 vintage has been similar in the same appellation. Intense, concentrated aromas of blueberry fruit, full of spice, light papaya aromas and refreshing acidity. The wine is full of fine tannins, without any kick. After decanting, the wine slowly emits black cherry and other fruits. The aftertaste is very old and the feel changes over time.
This is a very sensual wine, recommended with red meat such as rib steak, roast duck or cheese.
