2023 | Clos de l'Oratoire des Papes Chateauneuf-du-Pape | Rhone Marquis de Calon A perfect place to vinifyMedium deep garnet red colour. Pure and layered nose, complex with notes of fine leather, tobacco, cedar wood, garrigue, ripe cherry, cassis, and roasted black pepper. The palate shows good density and volume, finely rounded with refreshing tannin, nice grain and polish, with sweet fruit flavours, balanced by vibrant bay leaf and mint notes. Warm and ripe but with well kept freshness and a long, powerful finish.
