JD93-95 Leading off the 2019 Châteauneuf du Pape, all of which were tasted from barrel, the 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Les Safres should equal or surpass the 2018 as it has the same level of elegance and finesse, yet even better mid-palate depth and concentration. It’s beautifully done and well worth purchasing.
WA92-94 The 2019 Chateauneuf du Pape Les Safres is impressively rich and ripe, delivering velvety layers of black cherries and blueberries, combined with hints of dried spices and dark chocolate. Full-bodied, expansive in the mouth and long on the finish, it looks to be an excellent example of Les Safres, which is 95% Grenache from Les Bedines.
Estate Notes: 75% Grenache, 25% Mourvèdre. Sourced from ‘Les Bedines,’ with “safres” or compacted sand soils. Vine age 60-70 years. Hand-harvested. Destemmed; fermented on indigenous yeasts in cement tank. Aged for 14 months, 75% in foudre and 25% in demi-muid (600L). Unfined and unfiltered.
