Jeb Dunnuck writes 91 Points | The 2020 Chteauneuf Du Pape from Avril checks in as 65% Grenache, 25% Syrah, and 10% Mourvedre. It has a perfumed nose of Bing cherries, candied violets, and ground pepper, as well as some sappy floral background nuances. Nicely textured on the palate, it’s medium-bodied, has ripe yet building tannins, and a great finish. It’s a beautiful, elegant wine that has lots to love.
Joe Czerwiski of the Wine Advocate writes 91 Points | Marking back-to-back strong efforts from this producer, the 2020 Chateauneuf du Pape features attractive aromas of ripe cherries, redcurrants, garrigue and some dried spices as well. A blend of 65% Grenache, 25% Syrah and 10% Mourvdre, raised in a combination of foudres and tanks, it’s medium to full-bodied, with soft tannins and a long, juicy finish. Drinking 2022 to 2033.
Base of Grenache, then Syrah and Mourvdre: the classic grape varieties of the appellation and a wine with beautiful tannins, which reveals itself with slight aeration. The mouth refines and stretches, the wine is calm and serene and just waiting for a meal. A great discovery in this appellation.
