(Wine Advocate Score 91) Now that it is in bottle, the 2018 Chateauneuf du Pape exhibits dark-fruit aromas of plums and blackberries, plus notes of cola, dried spices and licorice. It's medium to full-bodied, lacking a bit of richness on the mid-palate, but remaining velvety there and through the chocolate- and coffee-tinged finish.

LOCATION This cuvée comes from several different terroirs (sand, rolled pebbles, red clay) located on the northern part of the appellation and on the plateau of La Crau.

VINE-GROWING The vines are grown without pesticides or insecticides and the manure is natural. The land is worked without weedkiller to maintain ventilation and flexibility of the soil.

WINE-MAKING PROCESS Manual harvest with sorting in the vineyard. 80% destemming then maceration for 21 to 28 days with daily manual pressing.

AGEING PROCESS 80% in foudres (wooden vats) and 20% in barrels (of which 1/3 are new), for 12 months.

TASTING With an ample and structured substance, this cuvée is well-balanced, whose notes of black fruits (blackberry, blackcurrant), combined with aromas of violets, cover a long and silky mouth, all in nerve.
