Châteauneuf-du-Pape is and will remain one of the great wines of the world. They are full-bodied and complex, supple, gentle and intense at the same time. They reflect the warm sun of the southern Rhône as well as the wild herbs in the area: fresh and dried plums, fully ripe cherries, aniseed, thyme and lavender. The tannin is soft and flattering, the acidity restrained, the length impressive.
