  • 94 Points
    A terrific wine that harkens back to the 2016, the 2020 Chateauneuf du Pape delivers black cherries, blackberries and black olives, plus intriguing notes of garrigue. Full-bodied, rich and silky, it finishes long, with a wash of softly dusty tannins.

    The classic 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape from this team is a winner, offering a medium to full-bodied, finesse-driven style as well as terrific aromatics of darker berries, raspberries, garrigue, and flowers, with a kiss of background peppery spice. It's balanced, medium to full-bodied, has ripe, soft tannins, and is loaded with character. Drink bottles over the coming 10-15 years. Best after 2022.

    Offering up enticing aromas of very ripe red and black fruits, dried herbs, licorice and hints of white pepper, the complex 2020 Châteauneuf-du-Pape is full-bodied, muscular and firmly structured. Already drinking well today, it will develop a wide array of tertiary characteristics after a few more years in bottle.
