The full-bodied 2020 Chateauneuf du Pape is approximately 60% Grenache, 30% Syrah and 8% Mourvèdre, with the other 2% a mix of other permitted varieties. This tank sample, tasted at the property, came across as a bit tough and hard, but with ample concentration and ripe cherry fruit. I'd focus on the currently available 2019.

The best "regular" Mont Redon I can recall tasting, the 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape is wonderfully full-bodied yet silky and harmonious, while the nose offers gentle garrigue notes and purple raspberries. The tannins on the finish are supple, and the flavors add hints of cola-like spice to the minty-fresh finish. It's an assemblage of 60% Grenache, 31% Syrah, 8% Mourvèdre and 1% other permitted varieties, aged in a 50-50 mix of barrels and tanks. Tasted twice (once blind), with consistent notes.

A gentle mélange of ripe cherries, dusty earth and dried spices mingle on the nose of the 2018 Chateauneuf du Pape. A blend of approximately 60% Grenache, 30% Syrah, 8.5% Mourvèdre and 1.5% other permitted varieties, it's full-bodied, showing some silky tannins on the cocoa-tinged finish.

60% Grenache, 30% Syrah, 8% Mourvèdre, 2% Cinsault/Counoise/Muscardin/Vaccarèse. Destemmed. Vinified in stainless steel, 55% of the blend aged in burgundian barrels of 228 litres for 12 months, 45% in stainless-steel vats. RS < 2 g/l, pH 3.7. Tasted blind. Tank sample. Lustrous deep crimson. Very primary fruit on the nose - but good primary fruit. Bit peppery and spicy nose with sweet candy. Straightforward, not messed about – fruit, the whole fruit and nothing but the fruit. I suppose it does taste rather like a very superior C?tes du Rh?ne…
