The 2017 Châteauneuf-du-Pape is 60% Grenache with the balance Mourvèdre, Cinsault, and Syrah. It’s a rounded, pretty, elegant 2017 that’s very much in the upfront, forward style of the vintage. Black raspberries, garrigue, spring flowers, and some sappy herb notes all flow to a medium to full-bodied, beautifully pure, classic cuvée from this estate that will drink well for 10-15 years.
