The red wine Châteuaneuf-du-Pape AOC Cuvée de mon Aïeul, vintage 2016 from the winery Domaine Pierre Usseglio has been rated in 2019 by Ulrich Sautter with 96 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Grenache from the region Châteauneuf-du-Pape in France.
Discreet woody, mineral notes, with iron, sweet cherry, and garrigue - very complex aromas, albeit still youthfully restrained. On the palate, it is a wine full of delicate nuances, with the subtle extract almost burgundy-like, and despite being 16 percent alcohol by volume, it is elegant and almost delicate. Has loads of tannin, but all highly resolved and weightless, with an intense mineral foundation. Long.
