Domaine Pierre Usseglio is a family-owned and operated estate and is one of the premier producers in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Not For You is an incredibly limited production cuvée of 100% Grenache from a single parcel of vines that were planted in 1909. The 2016 is an astonishingly complex wine that shows masterful understanding of the variety and its terroir, exhibiting remarkable balance and synergy between extraordinarily concentrated fruit, delicate herbal nuances and immense tannic structure. Only one barrel of this exceptional wine was produced.
