justerini & brooks tasting note

The wine that used to be called “Signature.” A silky, aromatic blend supports griotte, sloes, pepper and touches of rose. Plummy on the palate but not heavy, a nice gentle grip gives the wine momentum allied to breadth. Fluid fruits with a snap and brittle brambly complexity. A blend of 14 parcels, mainly old vines Grenache (50 to 100 years old), with 20% Mourvedre, the balance made up of Syrah and Cinsault. Aged in large old wooden casks.

critic reviews

90/100Joe Czerwinski,Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2021 Chateauneuf du Pape Julien Barrot delivers taut strawberry and raspberry fruit. The tannins in this medium to full-bodied wine are silky, but the long, crisp finish comes across slightly tart and edgy. It's a solid effort for the vintage.
