2022 Domaine de la Charbonniere Chateauneuf du Pape Rhone, France

(92 Points) Rocking red fruit, peppery garrigue, sandalwood, and spring flower notes define the 2022 Châteauneuf Du Pape, a blend of 70% Grenache, 15% Syrah, and 15% Mourvèdre. From a mix of terroirs and aged in mostly in concrete, as well as demi-muid, oak barrel, stainless steel, and foudre, it's medium-bodied, has a pure, layered, elegant mouthfeel, sweet tannins, and a great finish. I love its sunny yet still fresh and vibrant profile, and it's perfect for drinking over the coming decade. - Jeb Dunnuck
