The 2023 Châteauneuf du Pape comes from the Brotte family (where the fruit is sourced) and is 90% Grenache and 5% each Syrah and Mourvèdre. Already bottled, it has a juicy, upfront, undeniably delicious style that brings both red and black fruits, some peppery, herbs de Provence-like nuances, medium to full body, and an upfront, ready-to-go style.
What We Thought: This has an expressive red cherry and baking spice nose and a smooth, medium-bodied palate of very ripe black cherry fruit that displays notes of black pepper, licorice, and nutmeg spice, finishing with very supple tannins.
