Jean-Pierre Boisson Domaine du Père Caboche Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2024 750ml

A very complete, classic, incredibly polished effort, the 2023 Châteauneuf Du Pape delivers sweet red berries, pepper, garrigue, and exotic flower notes. Based on 80% Grenache, 15% Syrah, and 5% Mourvèdre and aged eight months in a mix of foudre, stainless steel tanks, and concrete, it's medium-bodied, has fine tannins, a beautiful sense of freshness, and outstanding length. I'd be thrilled to drink a bottle any time over the coming decade or more. With roughly 5,000 cases produced, this is a terrific value. Drink 2025-2037.
