Domaine Isabel Ferrando F601 (Châteauneuf-du-Pape)
No F601 is not the latest supercar from Ferrari. It is the most recent offering from Isabel Ferrando. From 100% Cinsault planted in 1928, the parcel is named F601. This stunning wine offers a beautiful perfume packed with flowers, spice box, wild cherries, kirsch, underbrush, and red plums. Soft, silky, fresh, clean and pure, with spicy top notes that fit perfectly with all those sweet raspberries and kirsch notes, the wine, aged in demi-muid is going to be impossible to find as only 800 bottles were produced. Each bottle comes in its own display box, so if you find a bottle, grab it! 2,674 Views Tasted Jan 8, 2021 |
