Massively corked. Bummer, and the second corked wine of the night. Can we figure this out people.

Expected a bit more, although he wine is still young. Lacking mid-palate but shows a nice herbal element. Have always likes the wines from this producer.

2021 was a cooler finesse year in CdP and it shows with this wine. Savory nose: charcuterie, dried plums and fig. It doesn’t drink hot, plenty of snappy acidity, some spicy notes, wild cherry and grippy tannins on the finish. I’ll be seeking out more 2021 CdPs based on this one. #châteauneufdupape

Mar 8th, 2026Lighter flavor, savory notes, mineral finish, hints of vanilla. Gentle and complex, heavy tannin at the end that would benefit from mellowing with age.
