Description
This year’s blend is 80% Grenache, 10% Mourvèdre, 7% Syrah and 3% Cinsault. As is customary, the wines were naturally fermented and raised in concrete vat (up to 90%) and large oak, without any new oak. The aging spanned 18 months and the wine was bottled unfiltered. Seamless, layered and textured, it’s a succulent release with explosive flavours of black raspberry, star anise and florals, grounded by well-integrated chalky tannins and a commanding mineral length. This is a beautiful and balanced expression from one of the appellation’s leading artisans." - Importer Notes
"The 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape offers a rich, full-bodied, concentrated, yet beautifully balanced style as well as the classic freshness and purity of the vintage. It has textbook notes of red and black berry fruits, violets, peppery garrigue, and orange blossom, with silky tannins and nicely integrated acidity." - 91-93 Points, Jeb Dunnuck
