92-94 Deeper and more concentrated than the 2018, the 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape is as impressive as I can remember this cuvée ever being. Dark in hue, overflowing with dark fruit, full-bodied and velvety in texture, with a long, licorice-tinged finish, this looks very promising. ... More details

Stating a whopping 16% alcohol on the label, the 2019 Châteauneuf-du-Pape follows the lines of intensely concentrated and complex red wines that Clos Saint-Jean followers are constantly raving about. It has an edge over the 2020, bursting from the glass with pungent aromas of blood orange, cooked red and black fruits, dried lavender, licorice, mint and cured meat. Ripe tannins give structure to the full-bodied palate, which is neatly balanced by bright acidity.

Rich but fresh, with a mix of cassis, dark plum and blackberry puree notes cruising through and enlivened by light garrigue, tobacco and warm stone accents. A savory-laced grip through the finish adds to the level of detail. Best from 2023 through 2036. 2,100 cases made, 150 cases imported.

Moving to the 2019s, this is clearly a gorgeous vintage from this estate, and you can’t go wrong with any of these wines. The base 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape has loads of Provençal garrigue, sandalwood, and red and black fruit aromatics as well as a full-bodied, ripe, seamless style on the palate. Drink it over the coming decade.

Region: Rhone Valley

The southern French wine region of the Rhone Valley has been home to wine-makers for over two thousand years, with the first grapevines of the region being cultivated in around 600 BCE when the ancient Greeks arrived with their knowledge of viticulture and eagerness to produce more wine. Today, the region is famed around the world for the excellence of its produce, and has dozens of wineries making the most of the wide range of grape varietals which flourish there. In the northern sub-region, the continental climate and brisk winds coming off the Central Massif allow wineries to grow a smaller range of varietals – predominantly Syrah, Marsanne, Roussane and Viognier, whereas the southern, more Mediterranean sub-region allows far more range. Here, dozens of varietals are grown for the production of white, red and rosé wines, all packed full of flavor and able to express the unique terroir they are grown on.

Country: France

Year in, year out, France enjoys its prestigious reputation as the producer of the finest wines in the world. With a wine making history which spans several thousand years and owes its expertise to the Romans, it comes as little surprise that this most highly esteemed of the Old World wine countries continues to impress and enchant both novices and experts to this day. Despite the rise in quality of wines from neighboring European countries, not to mention the New World, the French wine industry continues to boom, with up to eight billion bottles being produced in recent years. However, France prides itself on always putting quality before quantity, and the wide range in fine produce is a testament to the dedication and knowledge of the wineries across the country. Indeed, from rich and complex reds to light and aromatic white wines, French wines are as varied and interesting as they are enjoyable to drink, making this country a firm favorite for wine lovers across the globe.
