Châteauneuf du Pape "Le Boisrenard" Domaine de Beaurenard, Rhone, FR, 2020

James Suckling 99Points

This deeply hued beauty offers a stunning bouquet of blackberries, scorched earth, licorice, ground pepper, and sappy garrigue. I always find a Burgundian-like texture on this wine, and the 2020 is no exception – this is one to put into a blind tasting of Grand Cru Red Burgundies and shock your friends. Medium to full-bodied, ultra-pure, with grippy, sappy tannins, flawless balance, and a great finish, it’s pure class all the way. This is a wine you don't want to miss, and one of the finest wines I’ve tasted from this estate.
