“Crafted from vines rooted in sandy soils, the 2023 Chateauneuf du Pape La Réserve is a compelling marriage of elegance and power. Unwinding in the glass with aromas of cherries, wild berries, peonies, crushed strawberries and exotic spices, it is medium- to full-bodied, round and juicy, with an enveloping core of fruit, velvety tannins and a long, lively and delicate finish. A blend of 60% Grenache Noir and 40% Mourvèdre, matured for 14 months in a mix of used barrels (40%) and large foudres, this is not the most extroverted wine in the range, but it is undoubtedly one destined for the cellar.” - Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

“Lastly, the 2023 Chateauneuf Du Pape La Reserve is the normal 60/40 split of Grenache and Mourvèdre that was brought up in demi-muids and barrels, with very little new. Awesome notes of black raspberries, spring flowers, baking spices, and graphite define the aromatics, and it's medium to full-bodied, beautifully pure, elegant, and seamless.” - Jeb Dunnuck
