Monday, December 26, 2022 - At peak !! I love old Châteauneuf-du-Pape !!
Perfect long cork, easily removed. Dark burgundy color with modest oxidation, clarity medium. Consumed over two days, lively fruit and acid on day one, softened, more brooding, and deep on day two. Aromas of blackberry, cherry, and Garrique. Flavors of rhubarb, black cherry, and rose hips with a hint of licorice with a long finish. A very balanced flavorful CDP. This is an age worthy wine with more years of life left, unfortunately this was my last bottle of this vintage in my cellar. Great fruit and a great winemaking effort by Xavier Vignon.
