Its flagship Rouge is, in the estate’s words, “a quintessential blend, reflecting all the diversity of the terroir and the perfect synergy that exists between the soils and the grapes,” made from all 13 permitted varieties, led by Grenache. The 2020 is about 65% Grenache, 15% Syrah, and 10% Mourvèdre, with the remainder from the other varieties, at roughly 14.5% ABV, and the house describes it as having “a supple and refined texture associated with a delicate aromatic palette that is the result of a constant quest for freshness.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCritics agree on the style. Vinous’s Nicolas Greinacher scored it 93 points: “The pale ruby-colored 2020 Châteauneuf-du-Pape opens with rose water, raspberry, strawberry, dried herbs and licorice aromas. Medium to full-bodied, concentrated and built around a smooth tannic structure with absolutely no hard edges, refreshing acidity balances this savory red that ends with a long-lasting finish.” Wine Spectator scored it 92: “An elegant red, with nice freshness and purity to the wild cherry, plum and red licorice flavors.” The Wine Cellar Insider scored it 91, noting “black raspberries, flowers and cherries” on the nose and a palate that is “round, lush, rich and supple,” and Vinous’ later review called it “a step up from the 2021, offering more concentration and complexity.” Another critic described “classic darker berry fruits as well as peppery garrigue and sappy flower notes,” with “plenty of tannins and structure,” but “beautifully balanced,” and one retailer notes “licorice and clay-earth minerality typical of Châteauneuf-du-Pape’s terroir.” James Suckling also reviewed it (94, per a retailer listing).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe 3-liter double magnum holds four bottles of wine, about 20 glasses, the right size for a big dinner, a holiday table, or a barbecue, and large formats of Châteauneuf age slowly and gracefully. Decant for an hour or more, and serve at about 62-65°F. It pairs with lamb, roast beef, duck, herb-crusted pork, and Provençal sausages.
