| Description: | 94-96 points Jeb Dunnuck. Coming from more rocky soils on the southwestern side of the appellation, the 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Les Terrasses has a more tight, focused style yet still has the sexy, opulent profile of the domaine. Black raspberries, candied orange, incense, licorice, and peppery garrigue dominate the bouquet, and it's full-bodied, with a dense, nicely concentrated mid-palate and a great finish. It's going to benefit from bottle age, but it's a beauty! (3/2021) 93 points Vinous. Ripe red and blue fruits, licorice, garrigue and pungent flowers on the highly perfumed nose. Lush and broad in the mouth, offering powerful, spice-tinged cherry preserve and boysenberry flavors that take on a smoky nuance with air. In a generous, vaguely decadent style but not lacking for energy. Shows impressive power and dark fruit thrust on the youthfully tannic finish, which hangs on with strong tenacity. (JR) (10/2021). |
