The red wine Châteuaneuf-du-Pape AOC Cuvée de mon Aïeul, vintage 2003 from the winery Domaine Pierre Usseglio has been rated in 2016 by Peter Moser with 97 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Grenache from the region Châteauneuf-du-Pape in France.
Strong crimson and garnet, with ochre reflections and a broad, lightening rim suggesting maturity. Hints of dried fruit, nuances of figs and candied orange - distinct Grenache aromatics. A nose like a Florentine, delicately nutty and candied. Juicy, round and elegant on the palate, with fine sweet dried plum notes, a mineral side and good persistence. This is now at perfect drinking maturity, wonderfully balanced.
