91-93 The 2023 Châteauneuf Du Pape Secret Barville is based on 100% Grenache resting all in foudre. It exhibits a medium ruby/plum hue as well as attractive red and black fruits, violets, Provençal spices, and savory flowers. This finesse-driven, medium-bodied, seamless Grenache has beautiful tannins, no hard edges, and just a compelling, complex, nuanced style that keeps pulling you back to the glass. It should evolve nicely for 10-12 years once released.

A chalky, serious and engaging red with red berries, wafers and warm spices on the nose. Medium-bodied with chewy tannins. Fruity and structured, with a generous finish. Drink or hold.
Winery
Color: Ruby tinged with purple highlights. Nose: Lots of finesse with hints of warm spices, black fruits (cassis, blackberry, cherry) along with roasted notes and red peppercorns. Palate: Elegant with forest fruits dominating the front palate. A rich mouthfeel is underlined by vanilla tones and supple tannins. Exceptional length promises great ageing potential.

Region: Rhone Valley

There are few wine regions in the world with a history as long and illustrious as that of the Rhone Valley in France. For over two thousand years, wines have been produced in this region, benefited by the excellent, mineral-rich soils of the region, and the varied climate which allows a wide range of grape varietals to grow. The Rhone Valley is now split into two quite separate regions, with the north part being characterized by its cooler, continental climate and the limited number of grape varietals grown, and the southern sub-region being perfect for growing a wide range of grapes, and producing an exciting number of different wine styles. The Rhone Valley is associated with elegant, flavorful wines, and certain grape varietals such as Viognier and Syrah, which are adept at expressing the finer features of their terroir.
