| Tasting Notes | Joe Czerwinski: The 2016 Chateauneuf du Pape is full-bodied butbalanced, with plenty of richness and concentration but also acertain paradoxical lightness. It offers complex garrigue and anisenotes, a blend of cherry and raspberry fruit, a silky texture and along finish that shows no sign of the wine's 15.8% alcohol. Fortechnocrats, the wine's pH is 3.7, which is sufficient acidity tomaintain a fine sense of balance. This lovely wine should drinkwell for at least two decades. Together with the 2015 and the 2017,it will be a compelling trio of wines to follow over the years. |
