Chateau de Beaucastel Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2022 Jeroboam

Châteauneuf Du Pape 2022 is a true Provençal success story, with almost overflowing aromas and flavors of sweet raspberry, blackberry, peppery garrigue and Provençal spices. It has the vintage's sunny, expressive and complex style, medium to full-bodied richness, ripe tannins and excellent finish. Like most 2022s, it has plenty of charm from the start, but also solid underlying tannins. It reminds me slightly of the 2009 and will have a longevity of two decades.
