Clos des Papes 2022, from the stony soils of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, blends Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Syrah. Notes of dark fruit, thyme, and spice lead to a silky palate and mineral finish. A wine for aging, ideal with red meat or aged cheeses and to enjoy through 2040.
A family estate rooted in the heart of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, shaped by four centuries of history and an unwavering devotion to its terroir.
- Terroir: Rounded pebbles and red clay soils of the Côtes-du-Rhône, where Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Syrah draw their mineral character and depth.
- Winemaking: Aging in century-old large oak casks, respect for natural cycles, and precise blending to reveal the spirit of the vintage.
Tasting notes for Clos des Papes Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2022
Appearance: An intense garnet color with purple highlights, silky depth, and crystalline brilliance.
On the nose: Wild blackberry and black cherry aromas intertwine with notes of sun-warmed garrigue, gray pepper, and cedar, lifted by a saline, chalky touch.
On the palate: A velvety yet taut texture, supported by lively acidity and stony minerality, with a long, spicy finish that brings together licorice and light tobacco.
Serve at 16–18°C in a Burgundy-style red wine glass to release its full complexity.
