- 92pts Jeb Dunnuck 10/2023
TastingThe 2021 Châteauneuf Du Pape Laurus ratchets up the intensity and has impressive mulled cherry fruit as well as loads of Provençal garrigue, sandalwood, pepper, and lavender nuances. It’s ripe, medium to full-bodied, has a round, expansive mouthfeel, and outstanding length. (Jeb Dunnuck – 01/10/2023)

Detailed information
Vintage
The year 2021 brought its share of climatic events: frost, rain – too much or too little – and moderate sunshine. An eventful vintage that delivered some pleasant surprises, with a smaller-than-expected drop in volumes, good balance and well-controlled degrees. The wines are easy-drinking, with beautiful fruit notes, a deep color and smooth tannins.
