Domaine Raymond Usseglio La Part des Anges Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2019

Description

An unusual and impressive Chateauneuf-du-Pape with a slew of elderberries and a licorice character. Enormous structure and concentration, the full tannins are already well integrated. The depth at the fundamental finish suggests this needs a lot more time to reach its best. A blend of 70% mourvedre, 20% grenache and 10% syrah. From Demeter-certified biodynamically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but best from 2024. [A wine that will cellar for another 15+ years.] Score – 96. (jamessuckling.com, Nov. 4, 2021)
