A stunner, sporting tropical mango and papaya notes that glide along beautifully, while heather honey, pineapple chutney and toasted coconut flavors fill in through the finish. Delivers an amazing mouthfeel that is both creamy and intense, presenting a pretty inner floral brightness that contrasts with the fruit. Best from 2020 through 2045. Wall-2 SPCAB1-2

The floral wine has great intensity, dominated at this stage by the concentrated botrytis. It is powerful, rich, balancing acidity and sweetness. This of course is a great wine that will age, but it is almost ready now. Drink from 2027 and for many years. SPBX-3
Chateau de Beaucastel 2020 Chateauneuf-du-Pape Vieilles Vignes Roussanne

Even better, the 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape Roussanne Vieilles Vignes comes from a single parcel of very old vines and is 100% Roussanne brought up in barrel. It too is medium to full-bodied and incredibly concentrated, with brilliant white currants, green almond, honeyed mineral, and spice-driven aromas and flavors. The balance is just about perfect, as is the purity of fruit, and this incredible white is one of the top releases in the vintage. As I’ve written in the past, it’s the Montrachet of the Southern Rhône and can evolve for decades in cold cellars. R35-1

A deep, quite herbal expression, with liquorice and crushed blueberries to the cassis fruit. Full-bodied, powerfully fruited, dense and deep. Really mouthcoating, intense fruit. The tannins are ripe, fine and plentiful, all saturated in blackberry juice on a long finish. Certainly, one of the more successful Châteauneufs this year. Will age well. A Mourvèdre-led expression of Beaucastel – it contains more than usual, at least 35% and probably more. Grenache and Cinsault fermented in cement, Syrah and Mourvèdre fermented in foudre SPBX-6

Brought up all in new demi-muids and barrels, the 100% Roussanne 2022 Châteauneuf Du Pape Roussanne Vieilles Vignes offers a heavenly bouquet of ripe quince, acacia flowers, toasted almonds, citrus oil, and spice. Ful-bodied, deep, concentrated, and layered, with an unctuous style, this is pure Beaucastel magic. Reminding me of the 2009 (which is drinking brilliantly today), it deserves 2-4 years of bottle age and will absolutely blow you away over the following decade or more. SPBX-6

Dark in color. Soft, juicy, velvety tannins. An approachable and well-balanced vintage of Coudoulet that should age well thanks to its tannic finesse, acidity and freshness. Though it is quite a tannic vintage, so give it some time.

Chateau de Carlmagnvs 2022 Red Blend Fronsac
Price range: $29.99 through $150.00

Decanter Magazine 93 Rating
A heady nose, spiced and pronounced with crushed rose petals and black peppercorns dominating the scent. Smooth and round, nicely textured with plenty of juicy strawberry and red cherry fruit and hints of tobacco, liquorice and a stony salinity on the finish. A flash of heat is present but well proportioned to the body with tons of flavor and enough acidity to finish with a refreshing lift. Special James Bond ‘Licence to taste’ label to celebrate the wine’s 60th anniversary.

Price range: $12.99 through $132.00

Château de Cathalogne Rouge has a pleasant aroma reminiscent of sun-ripened blackberries, dark plums and black currants. The taste is medium-bodied with ripe tannins and a fruity style where you will find dark fruits such as blackberries, dark plums, black currants and a touch of licorice.
