Domaine Durieu was established in 1976 by Paul Durieu and remains family owned, now run by Paul's sons, Vincent and Francois. Unusually, Durieu de stem their grapes to aid fruitiness, relying on fruit from low yielding vines to provide firm tannic structure. With typical Chateauneuf power, the wine delivers a fresh and spicy nose of red cherry embellished with notes of sage and wild thyme. The palate is equally powerful, with sinuous tannins and huge length. The classic match for a full flavoured game pie.
