Janasse Chateauneuf Du Pape Chaupin
| Vintage: | 2018 |

| Description: | Wine Advocate 95 Points - "As usual, the 2018 Chateauneuf du Pape Chaupin displays more red fruit than the main bottling, being 100% Grenache from sandier soils. Raspberries and cherries appear on the nose alongside subtle hints of garrigue. The full-bodied palate is almost airy in feel, supported by a latticework of silky tannins and bright acids, while simultaneously adding bass notes of dark chocolate and licorice that linger on the finish. It's an impressive effort.". Wine Spectator 95 Points - "This bursts forth with delicious crushed plum, cherry puree and raspberry coulis notes that stretch out slowly through the lengthy, anise- and black teainfused finish. Not shy with its fruit, but this has more than enough energy and detail for balance.". Jeb Dunnuck 94 Points - "Another wine that displays the vintage profile, the 2018 Chteauneuf Du Pape Cuve Chaupin reveals a translucent medium ruby color as well as pure Grenache notes of kirsch and strawberry fruits intermixed with lots of white pepper, Provenal garrigue, and toasted spice-like aromas and flavors. Playing in the medium to full-bodied end of the spectrum, it has a seamless texture, plenty of mid-palate depth, and a great finish. Im inclined to recommend drinking this in its first decade of life, but I do love its balance and it has ripe tannins, so I expect it will actually evolve gracefully for a solid 15 years or more. Its a pretty, elegant, classy wine that I would be thrilled to drink." |
