Chemin des Papes Côtes du Rhône 2022

93 POINTS: Sam Kim, Wine Orbit
92 POINTS: Wine Direct Tasting Team

"Sweetly fruited with spicy nuances, the wine shows dark berry, clove, nutmeg, game and toasted nut aromas on the nose, followed by a generously flavoursome palate offering excellent fruit intensity well framed by fine grainy tannins with a lingering savoury finish. At its best: now to 2027."

In times past, Popes would spend their papacy performing tasks of a more spiritual and mystical nature than political. Legend has it that along their long path of spiritual reflection, Popes enjoyed a Côtes du Rhône famous for expressing the richness and abundance of the local land to perfection. The wine was naturally baptized Chemin des Papes, the Path of the Popes.

ABV: 14%

Another winner from Domaine de la Baume

We've been fans of their Syrah and Chardonnay for some time and this is another go-to product we'll add to the list.
Light in colour, but plenty of depth and flavour and pleasingly dry.
Highly recommended.

love it

Bubblicious

Delicious white wines!

I haven’t tried every bottle in this selection yet, however, so far they are all very tasty. I’m a Chardonnay lover, always on the look out for a dryish not sweet wine and these are just right for me. An excellent mixed case and we’ll priced.

Rich and fruity

This was a very nice surprise in Wine Direct’s very welcome Plenty Under $20 category. Beautifully fruity, rich and smooth. Often the Plenty Under $20 range is a little light for the depth I like but I will definitely be reordering this one.

A great summer wine… elegant and a fine balance of lighter fruit and delicate acidity with a nice dry finish. Very drinkable with or without food. A nice change from our usual unoaked French Chardonnay
