Tasting note
Châteauneuf-du-Pape Grenache should lead with raspberry, red cherry and warm herbs, edged by a darker note of blackberry. The 2022 Clos du Calvaire is expected to feel generous and rounded, with ripe fruit supported by supple tannin and enough acidity to keep the palate fresh. Its listed peak runs from 2027 through 2039 within a longer horizon to 2045, and a lingering herbal finish should bring balance to the wine's broad, sunlit fruit.
