Matured in a mix of foudres, tanks and barriques, Perrin's 2018 Chateauneuf du Pape boasts scents of leather and earth on the nose, alongside notes of black olives, asphalt and black cherries. Full-bodied, concentrated and richly textured, it's a solid effort, with a lingering finish that's more supple than typical at this address.

The full-bodied 2017 Chateauneuf du Pape is a blend of 70% Grenache, 15% Mourvèdre, 10% Syrah, 3% Cinsault and 2% Clairette. Aged in a mix of barrels, foudres and tanks, it shows hints of cedar and vanilla on the nose, plus peppery spice and milk-chocolate flavors that finish on a tannic, astringent note.

The 2016 Chateauneuf du Pape is 70% Grenache, 15% Mourvèdre, 10% Syrah and the rest a bit of Cinsault and Clairette. Aged in a mix of old and new barrels, steel tanks and foudres, it offers hints of balsam-like spice and ripe cherries. It's full-bodied and concentrated but a bit astringent and overly tannic on the finish. Give it a couple of years to settle down before enjoying it over the next decade.

The entry level cuvee is the 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape and it’s a medium-bodied, lightly textured and slightly simple effort that has charming notes of red fruits, dried Provencal garrigue and spice. It’s certainly well-made and will drink well for 5-7 years.

Showing the forward, mid-weight style of the vintage, the 2014 Chateauneuf du Pape is a medium-bodied, straightforward effort that has attractive notes of savory herbs, underbrush, leather and assorted red and black fruits. Drink it over the coming 4-5 years.
