Clos du Mont Olivet Chateauneuf du Pape Rouge 2019

2 units available online.
Product description
Aromas of blackberry, red cherry and baking spices. Smooth, concentrated yet balanced; flavors of tart cherries, red plums and light licorice. Very long finish.

Pair this wine alongside grilled steak, lamb roasted with prunes, olive tapenade.

94 Points - James Suckling

Very ripe but restrained and subtle with black fruit, licorice and black olives, this is concentrated, spicy and focused. Compact, tannic core, then a very long, velvety finish with serious power and complexity.

93 Points - Wine Spectator

Kirsch, linzer and cherry purée notes stream through in this vibrant and expressive offering, displaying a lovely, silky feel from start to finish. Light iron and shiso hints filter through at the very end, adding range and subtle persistence. Drink now through 2034.

Moving to the classic 2019 Chateauneuf Du Pape, this little gem should be snatched up by readers, as it’s as textbook as they come. Ruby/plum-hued, with a medium to full-bodied, round, elegant mouthfeel, it has ample red and black fruits, notes of peppery herbs and licorice, supple tannins, and a great finish. A wonderful 2019, it will have two decades of longevity.

Much like the 2018 version, the 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape is a plushly textured, easy-drinking wine. Hints of garrigue and briary notes accent red raspberries on the nose, while the full-bodied palate is silky and expansive, easing into a lengthy finish.
