Product Description
This wine is what any Chateauneuf lovers expect in a classic wine: dark color, racy, silky tannins and freshness (due to its good acidity). It showcases the purity of the fruit that comes straightforward to the nose. It is so appealing when a wine shows beautifully when you open it and you pour it in the glass. Though this wine is 80% destemmed, it has a very elegant and balanced style: it is a medium bodied wine with a silky texture and ripe tannins.

Robert ParkerThe 2022 Chateauneuf du Pape from La Bastide Saint Dominique reveals an elegant, gourmand bouquet of dark cherries, flowers, spices and chocolate. Medium to full-bodied with a juicy core of fruit, it's well-balanced, layered and enveloping with a charming, velvety midpalate that segues into a fresh, ethereal finish.

Robert ParkerA classic assemblage of 70% Grenache and 15% Mourvèdre and Syrah, the 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape offers notes of ripe cherries and brown sugar on the nose. Aged mainly in wooden vats, but with smaller amounts in foudre, tank and used barrels, it's full-bodied and silky textured, fine and elegant, not overly rich or concentrated, just an easy-drinking, delicious wine for early consumption.
