Dark and powerful, this makes a bold statement on the full-bodied palate, but unlike so many 2022 Chateauneufs it doesn't edge in the rich and creamy direction. It has a cornucopia of black fruit, black olive and tar aromas. Major tannins, but they are very fine and give the finish energy and drive as well as structure. A cuvee based on old-vine grenache with syrah, mourvedre and counoise from biodynamically grown grapes.
