The Story
Crafted from old vines in exceptional Châteauneuf-du-Pape parcels, Château Maucoil Privilège reveals intense aromas of blackberry, black cherry, plum, garrigue herbs, licorice, cocoa, and cracked pepper. Richly concentrated yet impeccably balanced, it delivers velvety tannins, vibrant freshness, remarkable depth, and an exceptionally long, elegant finish.
Food Pairing: Pair with herb-crusted lamb, grilled ribeye, duck confit, venison, beef daube, truffle potatoes, aged Gruyère, or wild mushroom dishes.
93 Points - Wine Enthusiast
Earthen notes of freshly tilled soil and garrigue lend depth to plump strawberry and blackberry in this bold yet nuanced wine. It's sunny and pliant on the palate, but fine, feathery tannins linger persistently, along with piquant hints of anise and leather. It drinks well already but should hold nicely through 2027.
