Clos du Mont-Olivet Chateauneuf du Pape Rouge 2022

$4899

Grenache and Mourvèdre reign supreme in this densely layered expression of Châteauneuf-du-Pape's ancient terroirs. A symphony of dark cherries, roses, and wild herbs unfolds with velvety tannins and remarkable depth, revealing why this estate—farming parcels across legendary climats like La Crau and Les Blachières—captures the soul of the southern Rhône. Medium to full-bodied, it balances fruit-driven sensuality with architectural elegance, inviting immediate pleasure while promising years ahead in the cellar.

"The 2022 Châteauneuf-du-Pape has the slight edge over the preceding vintage. Melted licorice, raspberry compote and jammy black fruits are front and center. The palate does not reflect the signs of over-ripeness shown on the nose. Round and concentrated with perfectly integrated tannins, even at this early stage, the 2022 is a triumph and should drink well right after release." —Nicolas Greinacher

"Aromas of roses, dark cherries, flowers and garrigue preface the 2022 Chateauneuf du Pape from Clos du Mont Olivet, a medium to full-bodied, layered and textured wine with a dense, fleshy core of fruit, supported by an abundance of sweet, velvety tannins that pave the way to a long, expansive finish. Composed of 75% Grenache Noir, 10% Mourvèdre, 9% Cinsault and small equal parts of Terret Noir, Muscardin, Picoult Noir, Vaccarèse and Counoise, this wine stands out as one of the finest red wines I have encountered at this address. With its structure and complexity, it promises to cellar well for over a decade." —Yohan Castaing

"An extroverted style, with sweet, ripe chocolate-covered cherry and kirsch on a plush, generous frame. Leafy notes add an earthy dimension, while ballasts of iron keep everything firmly anchored. Shows pretty incense smoke threads through the lush, warm finish, with violet high tones. Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, Cinsault, Counoise, Vaccarèse, Terret, Picpoul and Muscardin."

More about Clos du Mont-Olivet

Mont-Olivet is part of a small group of resistors who refused to add the ripeness, extraction, and new oak that got better market prices in the Parker era. Châteauneuf-du-Pape, at its heart, is really a wine of elegance that develops beautifully with age. That is exactly the kind of wine that Mont-Olivet crafts.
