Chateauneuf du Pape Tradition 2022 Domaine Giraud

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (94)

The 2022 Chateauneuf du Pape is all Grenache, made in concrete. Full-bodied and silky, it's redolent of cherries, raspberries and even a touch of lavender. It looks to be lovely stuff.

James Suckling (93)

This complex Chateauneuf has stacks of cardamom, clove and hot dry earth character. Concentrated and medium- to full-bodied, this is a strikingly original wine for the 2022 vintage. With a little more depth at the harmonious finish, this would rate even higher. A cuvee based on grenache and syrah.

Jancis Robinson (16.50)

Tasted blind. Generous fruit on the nose, with wild strawberry, mulberry and raspberry jam. A rich, opulent mid palate, with fine and well-managed, intricate tannins; a core of ripe, dense fruit with a slight cooling freshness beneath. A big wine, with real precision as well. Should be approachable relatively early. (AC)

Vinous (92)

The 2022 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Tradition unwinds with delicate orange blossom, raspberry, strawberry, licorice and dried herbs. Concentrated and expressive, ripe tannins and elevated flavor concentration mark the palate. Finishing with persistence, the 2022 comes across as quite focused.
