| Description: | Wine Advocate 95 Points - "a rich, mouthfilling effort, Vieux Donjon's 2018 Chateauneuf du Pape is concentrated and velvety, showing plenty of power and weight. Ripe cherries and raspberries are dusted with clove and star anise, then joined by hints of leather and cocoa on the long, intense finish. This is a beautiful Vieux Donjon that should drink well for more than a decade. The single cuves of red and white Chteauneuf du Pape produced at this estate continue to impress, with the 2018 red coming across as particularly concentrated without lacking nuance.". Jeb Dunnuck 94 Points - "This estate always makes a traditionally styled wine and their 2018 Chteauneuf Du Pape is no exception, revealing a medium ruby/purple color as well as spicy, gamey notes of red and black currants, smoked game, peppery garrigue, and new saddle leather. Medium to full-bodied, with terrific elegance (which is the vintage), a gorgeous texture, and outstanding length, this is classic, old-school Chteauneuf du Pape done clean, balanced, and brilliantly!" |
