2020 Chateauneuf du Pape MG

En fremragende Châteauneuf-du-Pape, der laves på næsten ren Grenache. Klingende ren karakter med sorte hindbær, brombær og et krydret element. Smagen er blød med stor smagsintensitet. Igen noter af sorte bær og en fin intensitet.

En helt unik Châteauneuf-du-Pape, der fremstilles af 90 % Grenache og det sidste fordelt på Syrah, Mourvedre og Cincault. Vinstokkene er plantet i den nordlige sektor af Châteauneuf-du-Pape på de to parceller Cabrieres og La Gardiole, der er beplantet i 1910 og 1930. Vinen er kun lagret på store tanke og ser intet egetræ i lagringsprocessen.

“96 points. This youthful 2020 Chateauneuf is enormously spicy, the red fruits character coming through more prominently on the generous and precisely contoured palate. Deep fine tannins are married to a delicate licorice and earthy character on the ample palate. Then comes the great wave of stony freshness at the extremely long finish. A cuvee from "young vines" that are 45-50 years old, and the remainder from 110-120 year old vines. Drinkable now, but best from 2024.

"95 points. I continue to love what vigneron Philippe Bravay accomplishes from his estate in the northern part of the appellation, and his 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape is another finesse-driven, incredibly beautiful expression of this magical region. Based on 85% Grenache, 5% Mourvedre, and the rest a mix of permitted varieties, it was partially destemmed and brought up in equal parts stainless steel and concrete tanks. It offers a huge perfume of ripe strawberries and red fruits as well as sappy flowers, garrigue, and Provençal herbs. This carries to a medium to full-bodied, balanced, incredibly seamless Châteauneuf du Pape with no hard edges, ultra-fine tannins, and a great finish. I’d be a buyer. This will put a smile on your face any time over the coming 10-15 years."

"94 points. This vintage has great finesse. It is characterized by spicy aromas of red fruits (cherry, raspberry) highlighted which make up a fleshy, voluptuous and intense bouquet. The palate is nothing but juicy fruit, perfectly ripe. The texture ample and generous.”

94 points. The 2020 Châteauneuf-du-Pape is a seductive blend of 85% Grenache, 5% Mourvèdre, 4% Bourboulenc, 3% Syrah and 3% Cinsaut. Aromas of rose water, wild strawberry, red cherry, raspberry and dried herbs usher this full-bodied, perfumed, rich and refined red. Velvety tannins and fresh acidity define this 2020 Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The savory finish goes on for well over a minute.

"93 points. Supple, soft, silky, polished and fresh with a solid sense of purity to all of the sweet, ripe, spicy, vibrant kirsch and red plums on the palate. The wine blends 90% Grenache, 8% Syrah and 2% Mourvedre. Drink from 2022-2033."
