Tasting Notes
Vinous 93
Stating a whopping 16% alcohol on the label, the 2019 Châteauneuf-du-Pape follows the lines of intensely concentrated and complex red wines that Clos Saint-Jean followers are constantly raving about. It has an edge over the 2020, bursting from the glass with pungent aromas of blood orange, cooked red and black fruits, dried lavender, licorice, mint and cured meat. Ripe tannins give structure to the full-bodied palate, which is neatly balanced by bright acidity.
Anticipated maturity: 2022-2034
