Chemin des Papes Côtes du Rhône 2023

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 baptised Chemin des Papes, the Path of the Popes.
