"Gutsy and forward, with a cascade of mulled dark plum and black cherry. Shows grippy tannins and cast iron minerality that power through the formidable finish, which is marked by licorice root and dried herbs. Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsault."

"A blend of 65% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 10% Mourvèdre and 5% Cinsault that's aged mostly in concrete vats, Chante Cigale's 2020 Chateauneuf du Pape offers up attractive scents of ripe cherries and stone fruit, plus hints of mint and garrigue. It's full-bodied, smooth and supple, nicely fresh and vibrant but not overly rich or deep, just harmonious and easy to drink."
