Reviewed June 2026Velvety in texture with transparent character yet not insubstantial, showing aromas of sour cherries, oranges, dried flowers and some exotic spices. Medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins and a precise finish. 90% grenache from sandy soils and 10% mourvedre. (KD)

Jeb Dunnuck
Not far off a Rayas-like style with its transparent ruby hue, the 2023 Châteauneuf Du Pape Piedlong is based on 90% Grenache and 10% Mourvèdre and aged 20-22 months in 60-hectoliter French oak foudres. It shows incredibly floral aromatics of framboise, spring flowers, minty herbs, and peppery, rose-like hints. Medium-bodied, with a balanced, juicy, seamless mouthfeel, fine tannins, and outstanding length, it's a beauty that should be given 3-4 years of bottle age if you can and will drink beautifully over the following 15 years. Drink 2027-2040.

The 2023 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Pied Long is an instant classic. Perfumed and complex, it starts with prominent forest strawberry, red plum, dried herbs and crushed violets. Touching the full-bodied palate with outstanding overall balance, the smoothly structured 2023 is both juicy and elegant, ending with continuity on the savory resolution. (NG)
