The red wine Clos des Papes Châteauneuf-du-Pape AOC Rouge, vintage 2018 from the winery Clos des Papes has been rated in 2021 by Peter Moser with 97 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre from the region Châteauneuf-du-Pape in France.
Strong ruby colour, with purple reflections and a broad ochre rim. Fine savoury herbal notes, with ripe cherry, fruits of the forest, and a pleasant woodiness. Still a little restrained. The mouthfeel is juicy and silky, with ripe fruit and ripe tannins. Elegant, balanced and persistent, with delicate hints of nougat on the long finish. Will develop well over time. A classic of the highest order.
