“Kirsch, black cherries, spicy garrigue, and sappy flower-like aromatics all shine in the 2023 Châteauneuf Du Pape La Bernardine, based on 80% Grenache, 15% Syrah, and 5% Mourvèdre. I love its vibrancy, purity, and complexity. Medium to full-bodied, ripe, and seamless on the palate, it pushes on the ripeness scale yet holds it together with velvety tannins, ample mid-palate depth, and outstanding length.” – Jeb Dunnuck 92 Points
