This is never the biggest or richest wine in the vintage, yet it shines for its wonderful balance and elegance. It should drink nicely for 10-12 years. The blend is 60% Grenache, 20% Mourvèdre, 15% Syrah, and 5% Cinsault that’s all from the cooler, sandy Font du Loup lieu-dit, and it was destemmed and brought up in a mix of foudre, old barrels, and tank. 2,500 cases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- Jeb Dunnuck, 92 pts. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA blend of 60% Grenache Noir, 20% Mourvèdre, 15% Syrah and 5% Cinsault planted on safre soils in lieu-dit La Font du Loup, the 2022 Chateauneuf du Pape possesses an elegant, fresh bouquet of wild strawberries, peony, dark cherries and flowers. Medium to full-bodied, enrobing and charming, it's supple with a juicy core of fruit, tense, fine-grained tannins and a long, ethereal and lively finish. Matured for 18 months in foudres (10%), large barrels (10%), used barrels (10%), stainless steel (20%) and concrete tanks (50%), this is a real success at this address.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 91 pts. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AHD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":34100770188,"sku":"U 1A","price":49.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0566\/6837\/products\/duloup.jpg?v=1486758465","url":"https:\/\/www.woodswholesalewine.com\/products\/2022-chateau-de-la-font-du-loup-chateauneuf-du-pape-rhone-france-750ml","provider":"Woods Wholesale Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
