Description: | Vinous 90 Points - Ripe red fruits, dried herbs and a pinch of white pepper introduce the 2021 Chteauneuf-du-Pape. It is pale, ruby- colored, medium to full-bodied and concentrated. Inviting and round, this 2021 red is neatly balanced by refreshing acidity and closes with a bright finish.". The origin of the name Vieux Lazaret dates back to the 18th century when there existed in the centre of the village of Chteauneuf-du-Pape a hospice or Lazaret. This offered comfort and shelter for the poor and infirm, provided by the Lazarists, who were a silent order of monks founded in 1625 by St Vincent de Paul to look after the sick and the needy in the French countryside. They took the name Lazarists from the Priory of St Lazare in Paris, where the original order had been formed in 1632. Winemaker Notes - It is a delicious and supple wine, synonymous with sharing and conviviality, adapting perfectly to meat dishes in sauces or more simply grilled. Its aromas make it a Chteauneuf-du-Pape accessible to many tasters, from beginners to the most experienced. |
