Wine Reviews
A somber, smoky bouquet of dark berries, dark cherries, licorice and violet. Medium-bodied, round and supple, it’s frame by structured tannins and a dense, juicy mid-palate, concluding with a delicate, ethereal finish.
A focused expression, this wine delivers pure red and black fruits unfolding against a delicate rose-petal backdrop. Silky yet chewy tannins gradually reveal layers of red cherry, pomegranate, spice, violets, and a hint of clove.
Delivering an intense aromatic profile of ripe strawberry, licorice, pressed violets and dried herbs. Orange blossom accentuates the floral dimension. Kept in check by fresh acidity, the full-bodied and concentrated 2022 carries spot-on balance and wraps up with a savory finish.
A lovely wine – so charming, fresh and compact, with great energy and freshness. The acidity really helps to balance the blackberry eau-de-vie fruit, which is potent but precise and powerful. A wine that has harmony and freshness, despite the high alcohol.
Starting with the 2022 Châteauneuf Du Pape, this classic blend of 40% Grenache, 35% Syrah, 20% Mourvèdre, and 5% Cinsault was aged 18 months in a combination of foudre, old and new barrels, and concrete. Ripe black cherries, savory strawberries, peppery garrigue, violets, and some meaty notes all shine in this beauty, which is medium-bodied and has a pure, layered, elegant mouthfeel, beautiful tannins, and a great finish.
