Clos St Jean Châteauneuf-du-Pape Vielle Vignes ‘21

A classic expression of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, this wine displays a ruby-red color and aromas of ripe strawberry, thyme, and a hint of leather. The palate is rich and velvety, with flavors of cherry liqueur, baking spice, and a long, mineral-driven finish. Sourced from old vines and aged in a mix of concrete and oak, the wine earned 94 points for its purity and aging potential. Pair it with herb-roasted lamb or mushroom dishes to highlight its earthy complexity. The wine’s elegance is a testament to the storied terroir of the Southern Rhône.
