2023 Cornelia Constanza

Vininformation

Druerne til Cornelia Constanza stammer fra mere end 80 år gamle vinstokke dyrket på sandholdig jord på La Crau vinmarken lidt nord for domænet. Her får du en veloplagt og usædvanlig saftspændt Châteauneuf du Pape, som demonstrerer det ypperste, Grenache Noir-druen kan præstere af renhed, finesse og forfinede aromaer. Her er lag på lag af kirsebær, jordbær og stikkelsbær i smuk forening med cacao, kanel, kardemomme og peber. Finishen er fyldig med en silkeagtig tekstur og modne tanniner. Grenache når det er allerbedst!

95 point - Jeb Dunnuck: "One of my favorite cuvées in the world and always a Grenache lover's dream, the 2023 Châteauneuf Du Pape Cornelia Constanza comes from 100% sandy safre soils in the la Crau lieu-dit. Made from 100% Grenache that was partially destemmed, vinified in concrete, and aged 15 months in 40% foudre, 30% new French oak, and 30% concrete, it has a medium ruby hue and gorgeous notes of blackberries, black raspberries, Provençal garrigue, pepper, and loamy soil. With medium to full-bodied richness, it's balanced and has a layered, elegant mouthfeel, ripe tannins, and a great finish. Very much in the more mid-weight, accessible style of the vintage, it will still evolve gracefully for 15 years. There are 250 cases produced. Drink 2025-2040."

93 point - Robert Parker: "More oak-driven than the estate’s Tradition bottling, the 2023 Chateauneuf du Pape Cornelia Constanza unfurls in the glass with aromas of spices, licorice, dark berries and garrigue. Medium- to full-bodied, seamless and enveloping, it’s a concentrated, dense wine supported by a solid tannic chassis and concluding with a long, spicy finish. This pure Grenache Noir, matured for 15 months in 30% new oak, 40% foudres and the remainder in concrete tanks, will benefit from additional time in bottle to fully integrate its oak influence and reveal greater finesse."

92 point - Din Vinguide: "Rå, kantet, sort frugt på basis af flint. Moderne stil med mørk, sort frugt. Men velbalanceret og intens med en pæn afslutning."
