Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend

My style of CdP. 2023. Rich and fruity with strong backbone of acidity. Ripe tannins, but in background. Garrigue all day long. Love

80% #grenache 10% #Syrah 5% #mourvedre and 5% #cinsault like a liquor and I love it.

2013 vintage drink late 2024. Fairly intense, medium tannins, and enough fruit. Lacked a bit of the savory, black olive characteristic that I love so much in CDP, but no real complaints here.

Funky goodness

Really beautiful - showing its age but still vibrant red fruit and cherry liqueur.

2006

Nice, rich maybe still heavy as it is in its youth as most of Chateauneuf - a great classic and well known wine - needs time to get rounder - little spicy notes it is an intense wine - see you in a few years

Cheap yummy cdp nothing wrong with this wine I picked up at Safeway

2017, from 375. Abs beautiful. Red fruit and garrigue. Long grippy finish.
