Santa Duc Chateauneuf du Pape Le Pied de Baud 2016 (1.5L)

96-99 WA / 94 JS

One of my favorite wines in the cellar, the 2016 Chateauneuf du Pape Le Pied de Baud is full-bodied yet positively light, airy and elegant. Dried spices and licorice notes provide complexity to the cherry and plum fruit, wrapped together in a lovely, long, silky finish. JC - The Wine Advocate

Beautiful, bold and pristine blackberries and black cherries. This has abundant energy and freshness. The palate has a sweet, succulent and vibrant core of tangy blackberries and black raspberries. Full of promise. Drink in 2020. - James Suckling
