The 2022 Châteauneuf Du Pape Cuvée Julien Barrot is also beautiful. Based on 63% Grenache, 13% Mourvèdre, 11% Syrah, 7% Counoise, 5% Cinsault, and the rest Clairette Rose that was partially destemmed, its deeper ruby/plum hue is followed by terrific aromatics of ripe black cherries, sappy garrigue, licorice, and chalky minerality. It's not massive yet brings a beautiful sense of concentration and mid-palate depth, ripe, polished tannins, and just about flawless balance. A gorgeous 2022, it’s going to benefit from 2-4 years of bottle age and cruise over the following decade or more. ... More details

Darker in character than the 2023 tasted side by side, the 2022 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Julien Barrot opens with vivid licorice, forest strawberry, lavender, dried herbs and a flicker of violet. Mildly shaped by fine-grained tannins, the full-bodied 2022 needs at least three more years in bottle before starting to show its full potential. An uplifting, savory conclusion rounds it up.

Rated 91 - The 2022 Châteauneuf du Pape “Julien Barrot” bottling from Domaine la Barroche is made from several different parcels of old vines that the family owns, with the average age of vines fully seventy years. The wine is made from a blend of sixty percent grenache, nineteen percent mourvèdre, thirteen percent syrah and the remaining eight percent a mix of other Châteauneuf varieties (mostly cinsault). The wine is raised in a combination of cement, smaller casks and demimuids. The 2022 version tips the scales at a full fifteen percent alcohol and offers up scents of black raspberries, fruitcake, hung game, pepper, bonfire, dark soil tones and a topnote of garrigue. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, plush on the attack and nicely vibrant from the good acids, with a rock solid core of fruit, good soil undertow, firm, chewy tannins and good balance on the long, complex and gently warm finish. This is a big boy that needs time in the cellar to soften up its considerable tannins, but it will be a good example of the vintage. - John Gilman

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.
