A little funky on the nose in the beginning. But the wine opened up and a rich GSM aroma is revealed. The fruit also opened up. Lite bodied, but layers of flavor. Had at Chez Panisse. Will need to find some in stores. — 2 years ago

Forest strawberry, black pepper, crushed violets and dried herb pinches present the 2022 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Le Mas. Medium-bodied at most, the 2022 contains finely sculpted tannins that provide gentle structure. Polished and refreshing, it concludes with a refined finale. (Nicolas Greinacher, Vinous, June 2024)

Domaine de Panisse CdP Noble Revelation
First off you have to know that I love! Love CdP. This is the 2012 vintage and it is hitting all the right notes...
The hue is red with a dollop of brown if you will. After a two hour aeration the smell is quite pleasant: ripe dark plum is predominant with a slight hint of dried Mediterranean spices. Balanced from beginning to mid-pallet, velvety! On the fore-pallet it feels bold and tannic with a long and savory finish.
There is a very casual non pretentious quality about this CdP which screams “drink me” after each and very sip... Enjoyed with a roasted Frenched rack of lamb and red wine reduction sauce, asparagus, and cherry tomatoes. Selection by the lovely Maria Chantal. — 5 years ago
