For Versino Châteauneuf-du-Pape Selection Laurence Feraud 2019, the Domaine Pegau, selects Grenache Noir, Syrah and Mourvedre varieties giving an excellent sample of the region. It has intense aromas of herbs, ripe red and black fruits with an emphasis on cherry and fig, licorice, dried flowers, pepper and skin. Exuberant on the mouth but also elegant, with fruit flavors, lively tannins and spicy aftertaste that lasts. You could enjoy it now but time will make it better. You could pair it with feathered game grilled meat, poultry with vegetables or mushroom dishes.
