Domaine des Sénéchaux's ruby red Chateauneuf-du-Pape is full of warm spice and unfolds an inviting aroma of red and black berry fruits. A stately body supports the lush palate with finely nuanced flavors of cherry jam, licorice and Provencal herbs, as well as spicy toasty notes.

The Domaine des Sénécheux Rouge is composed of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Vaccarèse-Cinsault.
