An attractive, layered, velvety and poised Châteauneuf-du-Pape with aromas of cherries, strawberries, dried herbs, tar and baking spices, full-bodied with fine tannins and a long, elegant finish. A classic, traditionally-made release from one of the appellation's most reliable old-vine estates.

94 Points
"Deeper ruby-hued and semi-opaque, the 2023 Châteauneuf Du Pape reveals ultra-classic aromatics of ripe black cherries, peppered meats, garrigue, lavender, and sandalwood nuances. Based on 75% Grenache, 10% each Syrah and Mourvèdre, and 5% Cinsault, it was partially destemmed, vinified in concrete tanks, and aged 12 months in large foudre. It's medium-bodied and has a pure, layered, elegant mouthfeel, ultra-fine tannins, and a great finish. This plays in the more charming, forward style of the vintage yet has everything in the right place, with flawless balance, and it’s just loaded with charm and character. Drink 2025-2045."
