“Cassis pastilles, strawberry jam, black cherry compote and a flicker of garrigue introduce the delicious 2022 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Réservée. Powerful, juicy and flamboyant in character, the 2022 might not have the sheer class and overall harmony as the standout 2020, but buyers can look forward to an open-knit, cellar-worthy Cuvée Réservée that’s going to demand at least four more years before starting to show its full potential.”
