"A "Pommardienne" thought accompanies the tasting"

"Its intense aroma is dominated by a note of juicy cherry, even chocolate. Fleshy and unctuous, it has a good thickness of fruit because we went looking for ripeness in the grapes, hence its ripe, fine tannins." (Revue RVF n° 674 - October 2023)

Tasting & pairing

Eye

Deep crimson red

Nose

Aromatic fusion of ripe but crunchy red and black berries, caramel licorice and lightly waxed Mediterranean spices.

Mouth

Smooth, racy attack, fresh structure on a volume of small, imperceptible, lined tannins. Aromatic persistence on a mid-palate of undergrowth and complex mineral basement. Sweet finish, always in balance with the freshness and fine grain of the raw material.

Expert opinion

Decanter

Decanter

Wine rated (guide 2023) 93/100

About the wine:

Dark color, with an expressive nose of black fruits. Full-bodied, powerful and concentrated, the tannins are big, bold and muscular, and will need time to settle. But this wine will be good when it's ready, in a resolutely massive and intense style for the vintage.

About the wine:

Its intense aroma is dominated by juicy cherry and even chocolate notes. Fleshy and unctuous, it has a good thickness of fruit, thanks to the ripeness of the grapes, giving it ripe, fine tannins.

Rated wine (guide 2022 ) 15.5/20

About the wine:

Nose of cherry, mocha and leather. Red fruits, sweet spices and tobacco. Very pronounced tannins for now, but the fruit is vibrant and has good intensity. Should age nicely.

About the wine:

The Châteauneuf Du Pape Vendange 2021 (80% Grenache and the rest equal parts Syrah and Mourvèdre) is charming, with ripe red and blue fruits as well as peppery garrigue and subtle Provencal notes. Ripe, medium to full-bodied, nicely textured on the palate, with supple tannins, it will shine from the start.
