Clos St. Antonin Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2019

Description

Mulled blueberries and dewy rose-petal notes perfume this silk-textured Grenache. It’s a rich, powerfully penetrating wine that fills the palate in pools of black-cherry and berry flavors, but maintains a thrilling mineral freshness and vitality. Framed by fine, silky tannins, it’s approachable already but should improve well through 2040 at least. Editors’ Choice. Score – 97. (Anna Lee C. Iijima, Wine Enthusiast, Oct. 1, 2021)
