🏰 The 2014 Châteauneuf-du-Pape vintage is often referred to as a 'vintner's vintage,' where meticulous work in the vineyards was a key factor in achieving a great result. Despite a challenging summer with weekly rainfalls and cooler nights, the vintage ultimately delivered fruity, well-balanced wines with an alcohol content slightly under average, rounded on the palate, and with fine, melted tannins. The red wines from 2014 are generally forward, with soft, supple, and elegant textures, good purity of fruit, sweetness, and a spicy personality. They are medium to full-bodied, concentrated, and have great acidity, brilliant depth, spicy character, and a velvety texture. These wines are perfect for near-term drinking pleasure.
