2019 | Mas de Boislauzon | Chateauneuf-du-Pape Cuvee Tintot

Very dark in the glass, this is soft and flowing with an earthy fragrance. Packed full of flavour and pliable, gentle tannin. The only minor stumble is the warming alcohol on the finish, but this is a big, driving, humming expression of Mourvedre, with great depth and length.

Reviews:

• Decanter: Very dark in the glass, this is soft and flowing with an earthy fragrance. Packed full of flavour and pliable, gentle tannin. The only minor stumble is the warming alcohol on the finish, but this is a big, driving, humming expression of Mourvedre, with great depth and length. The estate's Mourvedre cuvee, grown on galets roules and sand in lieux-dits Boislauzon and Palestor, fermented in concrete then aged in concrete and old barriques.

• Jeb Dunnuck: The Mourvèdre-dominated (there's 15% Grenache) 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Cuvée Tintot reveals a dense purple hue as well as a gorgeous bouquet of blackberries, blueberries, cured meats, toasted spice, and peppery garrigue. Deep, full-bodied, and concentrated, it has a flawless mid-palate, ripe, building tannins, and a great, great finish. Aged 90% in concrete tanks and 10% in very old barrels, it ranks with the finest examples of Mourvèdre in the appellation and would easily stand beside Beaucastel’s famed Hommage a Jacques Perrin! Bravo!
