A dense and focused blend of grenache, syrah and mourvedre, offering aromas of sweet cherries, chocolate, warm spices and hints of dried herbs. It’s full-bodied with fine tannins that provide a caressing framework to the generous red fruit. Lovely lift of spice in the vivid, persistent finish. Drink from 2027.

Rocking red fruit, peppery garrigue, sandalwood, and spring flower notes define the 2022 Châteauneuf Du Pape, a blend of 70% Grenache, 15% Syrah, and 15% Mourvèdre. From a mix of terroirs and aged in mostly in concrete, as well as demi-muid, oak barrel, stainless steel, and foudre, it's medium-bodied, has a pure, layered, elegant mouthfeel, sweet tannins, and a great finish. I love its sunny yet still fresh and vibrant profile, and it's perfect for drinking over the coming decade.

A sturdy, robust version, with an enticing gush of ripe fruit held together with black tea tannins and a finely crushed graphite layer. Shows a hint of tar on the polished finish, plus toasty cedar and vanilla details. A bitter dark chocolate note plays out on the substantial finish. Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. Drink now through 2033. 1,800 cases made, 800 cases imported.

The 2022 Châteauneuf-du-Pape opens with spicy garrigue, ripe strawberry and black cherry aromas. With firm tannins providing solid structure, the full-bodied and concentrated 2022 needs at least two more years in a cool cellar to come together. A savory finale of good length rounds it up.
