"What can be thought of as the entry level cuvée from this estate, the 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Le Miocène reveals a healthy purple/ruby hue as well as beautiful blackberry and black raspberry fruits supported by ample peppery herbs, new leather, herbes de Provence, and assorted garrigue and spicy nuances. It's more forward and soft on the palate, yet it still has the classic structure and savoriness of the vintage and is going to age gracefully."
