Product Overview
92 Points - Wine Spectator
"A suave, polished style, featuring a core of red licorice, damson plum and anise flavors that glide through the silky palate, with lavender and salty mineral notes filling in the backdrop. Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah. Drink now through 2035. 5,000 cases made, 700 cases imported." -JM, 2/28/23

"Tasted prior to bottling, Fortia's 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape is a foudre-aged blend of 45% each Grenache and Mourvèdre and 10% Syrah. It offers up slightly herbal notes but more bright red fruit in the form of ripe cherries and pomegranate. It's full-bodied in the mouth, soft, silky and elegant, then slightly drying on the finish." -JC, 5/5/22
