More evolved than the Combe des Fous 09, this needed a bit of air to offload some of its riper notes. A bold, large scale Chateauneuf. — 2 years ago

Spicy on the tongue but light on the nose. Like it never even happened. — 4 years ago

8.9 actually but I wanted to bring this one up a bit. Very pleasant and refreshing; very dry with delicious brightness. Not deep or rich but a great drink for a great price. — 2 months ago

Black fruits expression of the gamay, foreshadowing the North Rhône’s Syrah. Many juicy shades of fruit including black cherry, blackberries, licorice, pepper, flower nuances, marked acidity. Still fits very well even at D+4. Very nice product, nature style

Expression très fruits noirs du gamay, préfigurant les syrah du Rhône Nord. Beaucoup de nuances juteuses de fruits dont cerise noire, mûres, réglisse, poivre, acidité marquée. Se tient encore très bien même à J+4. Très beau produit. — 9 months ago

Enjoyed this wine. I’m not as familiar with Mendoza SBs so it was really interesting and unique in comparison to its counterparts from other regions. Medium bodied, pear and lime. Would love to have again. — 2 years ago

The 2020 Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Combe des Fous is a blend of Grenache, Syrah, Cinsaut and Vaccarèse. The 2020 La Combe des Fous offers up intense aromas of cooked red and black fruits, cloves, licorice, dried herbs and black olive tapenade. Solid tannic structure frames this concentrated, full-bodied powerhouse, balanced by bright acidity. It concludes with excellent freshness on the savory finish.

Usually not focused on this type of wine, it was a very pleasant tasting. Fresh and tangy attack on currant notes; the body is delicate and complex with extraction that brings relief. The finish is more than honorable on infused, hay, dried herbs notes. Balanced, really well done. 🇨🇭

Habituellement pas très porté sur ce type de vin, ce fut une dégustation très agréable. Attaque fraiche et acidulée sur des notes groseilles ; le corp est délicat et complexe avec de l’extraction qui apporte du relief; enfin la finale est plus qu’honorable sur des notes infusées, végétales, foin, herbes séchées. Équilibré, vraiment bien fait. 🇨🇭 — 2 years ago
