DOMAINE RAYMOND USSEGLIO – Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2022
Rhône Valley, France
Domaine Raymond Usseglio Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2022 is a classic southern Rhône blend that beautifully captures the richness, warmth, and aromatic complexity of the historic Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation.
Produced from old vines planted on the famous galets roulés (rounded stones) and sandy soils of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, this wine reflects both power and elegance. The blend is typically dominated by Grenache, supported by Syrah and Mourvèdre, giving the wine depth, spice, and structure.
Deep ruby in colour. Aromas of ripe black cherry, raspberry, and plum mingle with notes of garrigue herbs, black pepper, licorice, and warm spice. The palate is rich and generous, offering flavours of dark berries, cocoa, and Provençal herbs, supported by velvety tannins and a long, warming finish.
