Domaine des Sénéchaux Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2020

I loved the 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape, and this is a wine I'd be thrilled to own. Sporting a ruby/plum color as well as a terrific notes of sweet red fruits, herbes de Provence, sweet spice, and garrigue, it hits the palate with medium to full-bodied richness, a light, elegant mouthfeel, soft tannins, and a great finish. It's not massive or powerful, but it's beautifully balanced, elegant, and nuanced. Drink this terrific 2020 any time over the coming 10-12 years. The blend is 54% Grenache, 25% Syrah, and the rest Mourvedre, and it was partially destemmed and brought up in a mix of foudre, older barrels, and concrete. Maturity: 2022-2034. Score - 94.
