Got a BIG one today as we are offering one of the highest rated CDP's of the 2022 vintage ... Clos des Papes!

Early scores are off the charts topping out at 98 Points from Jeb Dunnuck and 97 Points from Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, leading many of us to speculate that this will indeed be one of the vintage's top wines!

On top of that, this is a wine that just missed a perfect 100 Point score ... can age for 20+ years EASILY ... and is available for $84.99 per bottle!!!

Clos des Papes is consistently one of the highest-rated wines in CdP - and this release is no different!

As you can see from the note from Wine Advocate below, quantities this year will be more limited than most and that, coupled with the incredible sale price below, will set the demand for this vintage at an all-time high.

"The 2022 Châteauneuf Du Pape is showing beautifully, with the sun-kissed style of the vintage yet more depth and density than most in the vintage. Blackberries, Provençal garrigue, spice, and saddle leather all define the aromatics, and it hits the palate with the classic elegance of the estate in its medium to full-bodied, layered, multi-dimensional style. It's one of the wines of the vintage and will have two decades of longevity." - 98 Points Jeb Dunnuck

"Despite a hailstorm that destroyed approximately one-third of the crop this year, Paul-Vincent Avril managed to produce a wine with the same grape proportions as in previous years, thanks to his vineyard's diverse and fragmented nature. So, the 2022 Chateauneuf du Pape from Clos des Papes reveals a delicate, aromatic bouquet of peony, gooseberry, lilac, flowers and cherries mingled with delicate notes of fennel and menthol. Medium to full-bodied, sappy and layered, it's perfectly textured with velvety, delicate tannins enhanced by bright acids and a long, ethereal finish. Although the Mourvèdre is slightly dominant at this stage, this wine is unquestionably poised for great aging potential." - 97 Points Yohan Castaing, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
