Delas Châteauneuf-du-Pape Haute Pierre 2019

Alluring, with a range of dark plum, raspberry and boysenberry compote flavours that have a lightly mulled edge, showing hints of dried garrigue and juniper. There's a nice caressing feel on the finish. Grenache and Syrah. 14% ABV.

The colour is a deep garnet red. The nose of the Haute Pierre has strong spicy aromas that reveal a rich, powerful body that is delicate, yet has a tightly-knit tanninc framework. On the palate, the wine is rich and unctuous, revealing intense liquorice-like flavours. 93 Points Wine Spectator.
