The final blend had been made at the time of my visit to the Guigal cellars in Ampuis, where I tasted the 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape Grand Vin prior to bottling. Black cherries, blackberries and just a hint of of toasty oak mark the nose, while the full-bodied palate is rich, plush and velvety, finishing long and harmonious despite obvious concentration and power. Tasted twice (once blind), with consistent notes. ... More details

The 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Grand Vin showed consistently (this is the third time I’ve tasted this from barrel), with lots of cassis, blackberry, peppery herbs, garrigue, and spicy nuances in a medium to full-bodied, concentrated, elegant package. It looks to be a clear step up over the Saintes Pierres de Nalys, but both are beautiful wines.

A cool and collected style of Châteauneuf, mineral and elegant, no excesses. Well balanced, with the oak only faintly visible in the background. It elongates the wine however, adding a layer of complexity. This is measured and precise. Grown largely on galets roulés soils, also some sand and hard sandstone, on lieux-dits Bois Sénéchaux, La Crau and Grand Pierre. Fermented and matured in a variety of containers, mostly in tronconic vats and concrete tanks, with 15% of the maturation taking place in new barriques.

Saturated ruby. Expansive, smoke- and mineral-accented black raspberry, cherry cola, cassis, baking spice and succulent herb scents show outstanding detail and lift. Sweet and expansive in the mouth, offering vibrant red/blue fruit liqueur, candied lavender, spicecake and licorice flavors that stain the palate. Powerful yet impressively lively and focused on the extremely long, floral- and spice-driven finish, which is framed by steadily building tannins.

This lures you in with a well of slightly warmed cassis mixed with raspberry pâte de fruit and mulled bitter cherry. On the back end, waves of menthol, tobacco, cast iron and warm earth mix in with the fruit. Youthfully backward and on the brawny side, this will need some cellaring to resolve fully. Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Counoise and Vaccarèse. Best from 2024 through 2038.

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.

Country: France

French winemakers are subjected to several laws and regulations regarding the wines they produce, and how they can be labeled and sold. Such procedures are designed to increase the overall quality of the country's produce, and also to ensure that wines made in each particular region or appellation are of a character and type which is representative of the area. Thankfully for consumers of wine world-wide, the French have a particularly high reputation to uphold, and seem to do so flawlessly. Every year, wineries from all over France produce millions upon millions of bottles of fine wine, making the most of their native grape varieties and the excellent terrain which covers most of the country. From the expensive and exquisite red wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy, to the white wines and cremants of central France, the French are dedicated to providing the world with wines of the highest quality and most distinctive character.
