Domaine de la Janasse Chateauneuf du Pape 2020 750ml
Product Details
With an ample and structured substance, this cuvée is well-balanced, whose notes of black fruits (blackberry, blackcurrant), combined with aromas of violets, cover a long and silky mouth, all in nerve.
The entry-level Châteauneuf-du-Pape Rouge from Domaine de la Janasse is sourced from a wide variety of terroirs, totaling about 10 hectares, located in the northern part of the appellation and supplemented with a small portion of fruit from La Crau. About 80% Grenache in most vintages, the rest of the blend includes varying amounts of Syrah, Mourvedre, and a bit of Cinsault. Harvested by hand, the fruit is mostly destemmed (about 20% whole clusters are retained) with fermentation in oak and concrete vats. The wine is aged in foudre (80% – Grenache) and French oak barrels (20% – Syrah & Mourvedre) of which a third are new.
Wine Advocate Review:
A terrific wine that harkens back to the 2016, the 2020 Chateauneuf du Pape delivers black cherries, blackberries and black olives, plus intriguing notes of garrigue. Full-bodied, rich and silky, it finishes long, with a wash of softly dusty tannins. Anticipated Maturity: 2023-2035
