L'avis des experts
Decadently ripe, the 2018 Chateauneuf du Pape combines hints of garrigue, raspberries, black cherries and dark chocolate on the nose. In the mouth, it's full-bodied, plush and creamy textured without coming across as heavy, finishing supple and long. While some may find it over the top, for me, it retains a sense of balance in the tension between the sense of ripeness and its delicate herbal nuances. It won't be terribly long-lived but should drink at its delicious best over the next 6–8 years.
A relatively gentle vintage, but well-balanced, with a sense of freshness and elegance to the strawberry, raspberry and a touch of plum flesh. It’s well-balanced, if a bit lacking in depth this year compared to recent vintages. Just a couple of non-organic treatments this year in order to cope with the mildew. Drinking Window 2019 - 2024
