Blend: 65% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 10% Mourvèdre, 5% Cinsault
TASTING NOTES:
This wine opens with vibrant aromatics of fresh citrus, green pear, quince, and tangerine, beautifully complemented by wild white flowers. On the palate, it offers a gentle yet nuanced experience, with notes of white peach, lemon zest, brioche, almonds, and a hint of sea salt. The texture is refined, supported by a lively acidity that invites immediate enjoyment. Perfectly suited for pairing with fresh salads, it's a wine that shines in the moment.

Based on 65% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 10% Mourvèdre, and 5% Cinsault from a mix of terroirs, the 2023 Châteauneuf Du Pape was partially destemmed and aged 18 months in concrete with smaller portions in foudre and demi-muids. This fabulous classic cuvée offers Provençal aromatics of black cherries, roasted garrigue, licorice, and black olives. Pure, focused, and seamless, it delivers medium to full-bodied richness with terrific mid-palate depth, a supple, elegant mouthfeel, and integrated tannins. It's a gorgeous expression that will drink beautifully over the coming decade.

The 2023 Châteauneuf-du-Pape introduces itself with fresh strawberries, red plum, violet and a dash of white pepper. Full-bodied, round and polished, the 2023 is a highly enjoyable, perfumed rendition of this wine that’s going to dazzle right out of the gate.
