Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
2022 vintage. Producer generally rachets down the overt Grenache fruitiness and ramps up the finishing palate spice box. This repeats that formula. Light-medium/medium body. Expressive nose. Above average tannins for current CDP efforts. The new btg CDP for the near future. If I told you the price, you'd think I was lying through clenched teeth. 03.19.25.

Great start to the weekend with this happy little CdP. She's got a soft ruby color with transparent, wide edges. She's got legs for days. The nose presents red fruit and cocoa. On the palette I find raspberry, rosehip, leather, and garrigue. A smooth finish with light tannins. She's a keeper!

Medium ruby color. Aromas of cherry, raspberry, baking spices and licorice. Solid GSM! Red fruit, pepper and clove on the palate.
