About the E. Guigal Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2020
The 2020 E. Guigal Châteauneuf-du-Pape is a rich and classically styled Southern Rhône red from a vintage praised for its elegance and balanced ripeness. This wine offers an expressive bouquet of ripe black cherries, plums, and raspberries, layered with sophisticated notes of garrigue (wild Provençal herbs), black pepper, and subtle hints of licorice. On the palate, it is full-bodied and well-structured, featuring the power characteristic of the appellation but tempered by a surprising freshness and fine-grained tannins. Matured for three years in large oak foudres, the 2020 vintage shows great purity of fruit and a persistent, savory finish that reflects the diverse galets roulés (rounded stone) terroirs of the region.
Charming and enveloping, the 2020 Châteauneuf-du-Pape from Guigal is a true classic of the vintage, marrying power with elegance. It wafts from the glass with aromas of dark cherries, mulberries, iris and spring flowers. Medium- to full-bodied, round and fleshy, it’s built around a sweet core of fruit framed by velvety tannins, concluding with a long, graceful and gently ethereal finish. This is a beautifully balanced wine that will age gracefully over the next decade and beyond.
A strappy, chewy, textured version, with notes of earth, cigar box and mocha atop a chewy base of dried cherry and currant, plus toasted anise and ablast of menthol freshness. Graphite shaving accents bring density and more weight to the substantial finish, cast in iron. Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah.
