Chateauneuf-du-Pape Clos du Calvaire 2021

The nose is precise and focused, offering red fruits and dark berries, complemented by traditional garrigue herbs, black pepper, and subtle earthy notes. The aromatic profile shows good clarity and definition, characteristic of the 2021 vintage conditions.

On the palate, the wine displays elegance and balance rather than power. The texture is refined, with well-integrated tannins providing subtle structure. The cooler vintage brings particular transparency to the terroir, allowing the stony mineral aspects to shine through. The finish is long and detailed, with fruit and herb notes carrying through.

This wine demonstrates both the more classical proportions of the 2021 vintage and the traditional character of Châteauneuf-du-Pape.
