Domaine Bosquet des Papes Châteauneuf du Pape Tradition 2023
The one and only Bosquet des Papes, the six-generation domaine that put the Chateauneuf appellation on the international map 100 years ago with their 'Chante le Merle' cuvee. Those of you who seek imposing, powerful, old-school Chateauneuf of the "garrigue-and-iron" persuasion know all about this legendary producer.
Critical Acclaim
92 Points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Vinified in concrete tanks and partially destemmed, the 2023 Châteauneuf du Pape Cuvée Tradition opens with aromas of spices, smoke and dark wild berries. Medium- to full-bodied, enveloping and concentrated, it is ample and well-balanced, built around a dense, gently grippy core of fruit and concluding with a penetrating, persistent finish. Matured for 12 months in a mix of foudres, large barrels and concrete tanks, this blend of 75% Grenache Noir, 11% Syrah, 11% Mourvèdre and small proportions of Cinsault, Vaccarèse and Counoise (1% each) is more introverted at this stage than its 2022 counterpart." - Yohan Castaing, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
