A seductive, round and velvety red based on 85% grenache, mourvedre, bourboulenc, syrah, cinsault and others. The nose reveals notes of wild berries, currants, candied cherries, wild herbs and stones. It's full-bodied with finely grained tannins. It has a delicate touch to it, elegant, balanced and silky. Controlled power with bright fruit and a fresh, pure finish. Long and developing, with plenty of pepper and vibrancy. Try from 2027.

The 2022 Châteauneuf Du Pape from Bravey is complex and upfront, with spicy, peppery red fruit, loads of garrigue and incense nuances, medium body, a focused, elegant mouthfeel, building tannins, and a great finish. Drink this remarkably Provençal, complex, satisfying 2022 over the coming decade. The 2022 is a normal blend of 85% Grenache, 6% Mourvèdre, 4% Bourboulenc, 3% Syrah, and 2% Cinsault, from the La Bertaude, Cabrières, and Maucoil lieux-dits, that was raised all in concrete.
