Description
Château Mont-Redon is one of the region’s oldest and best Châteauneuf-du-Pape estates. Family owned and run, the quality of the wine is impeccable; a big, smooth, generous red that is a perfect example of quality Châteauneuf-du-Pape -complex, age worthy and lingering.
“Decadent layers of blackberry and mulberry preserves are pierced by smoke and toast in this unctuous, glossy red. It’s a warming, piquant sip marked by clove, cardamom and black pepper, but balanced freshly too. Tannins are fine and feathery. Oak tones are a bit flashy in youth but should meld beautifully through 2031.”
