Famille Perrin Châteauneuf-du-Pape Les Sinards 2021 is a beautiful fresh style of Châteauneuf du Pape produced principally from Grenache Noir with just a touch of the other classic grape varieties, Syrah and Mourvèdre. The 2021 vintage was known for its freshness. Grenache brings rich fruit and structure to the wine, Syrah elegance and perfume and Mourvèdre some savoury notes, colour and further complexity. The wine is more medium than full-bodied and will develop further; it opens up whilst in the glass displaying complexity and elegance. Some Châteauneuf du Papes are not ready to be consumed for a number of years but this one, with some grapes from younger vines, can be enjoyed immediately.
I really love the texture of Famille Perrin Châteauneuf-du-Pape Les Sinards 2021; it fills the mouth with a silkiness rather than being creamy and at the same time the wine’s finish is deliciously mouth-watering. with warm ripe red fruits – raspberries, cherries & plums – and light notes of pepper and herbs of the local ‘garrigue’. The wine from each grape variety is vinifed in a mix of wooden and stainless steel vats to ensure that the fruit flavours dominate; once blended the wine is aged in large used oak barrels to give the wine further texture and complexity. This sia really “grown-up” wine.
Drink with chicken, turkey, red meats (grilled, roasted or barbecued) especially lamb, game etc. It is the perfect red wine for Christmas dinner.
Serve at: 16 – 18°C
Les Sinards is made principally from young Beaucastel vines and two neighbouring vineyards. Made from a majority of Grenache, it offers all the elegance of Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
2021 is a vintage marked by freshness, which is similar to the vintages we had in the eighties and nineties. It is also what we call a “winegrower vintage”, human intervention and the care given to the vines were decisive for the quality of the vintage. Marked by climatic vagaries, with an episode of frost in April and interrupted harvest because of rain, this year has indeed required constant investment from our teams in the vineyard. Their attention and their commitment have borne their fruit: this vintage is very promising with lots of freshness and great balance.
