2021 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Rouge, Domaine des Saumades, Rhône

Description

Primarily grenache, this luscious red has dark fruit, floral notes and a silky finish.

Will Lyons, The Sunday Times (March 2024)

The wines of the sandy soils of the Pignan lieu-dit, just like those of Rayas itself, tend to display beautiful floral aromas and superb fruit concentration with incredibly subtle, fine tannins. This 2021 has wonderfully lifted and bright blueberry and earthy raspberry aromas followed by a juicy and concentrated palate with a fine, silky texture. A lip-smacking umami note lingers on the long, refreshing finish. Gorgeous.

Drink 2023-2036

Tasted blind. Crushed red fruits, spice, rosemary and a liquorice/mineral note. Wonderful, soft fruit on the palate with notable, fresh acidity and moderate fruit concentration. Medium-long finish. 2026-2033Alistair Cooper MW, JancisRobinson.com (October 2022)

About this wine

Châteauneuf-du-Pape

Châteauneuf-du-Pape

The largest and most important appellation in the southern Rhône, with more than 3,200 hectares of vineyards and over 80 growers, Châteauneuf-du-Pape produces more wine than the whole of the northern Rhône combined. The gloriously rich red wines, redolent of the heat and herbs of the south, are enhanced by the complexity which comes from blending several of the 14 permitted grape varieties including Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah.
