Chateauneuf is one of those rare styles that is as good young as it is aged.
Significant bottle age can mellow the fruits, integrate the tannins, and kick up tertiary flavours of game and leather.
But this...this is extreme bottle age. As a yardstick, Messi scored his first goal for Barca in 2005.
24 years and 837 goals later, we open this up - and boy has it stood up fantastically well in the time. Not surprising - Vidal Fleury have incredible pedigree, operating since 1731.
Great opportunity to drink some really aged fine wine for an affordable price.
