Red-fruited, floral and citric, this medium- to full-bodied, distinctively elegant red is one of the most refreshing samples I tasted this year. The finish is long and complex.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e93pts Jeb Dunnuck\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBased on 100% Grenache and aged in old barrels, the 2023 Châteauneuf Du Pape Les Sablons offers spiced strawberries, mint, sappy flowers, and Christmas spice aromatics.

The vinification is traditional, that is to say, whole-cluster, such as employed by Jacques Reynaud at Château Rayas, Laurent Charvin, Henri Bonneau.  The Grand Pin, perhaps because the sand is nearly pure white, perhaps the higher elevation or due to some other factor we have not yet determined, makes a wine that is lower in alcohol, more perfumed and finer. This is one of the purest expression possible of grenache, very much reminiscent of Rayas, without the price tag.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"XXI","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67920445407596,"sku":null,"price":59.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2424\/3053\/files\/saint-theodoric-les-sablons-chateauneuf-du-pape-2023-750ml-323683.jpg?v=1793141443","url":"https:\/\/redneckwinecompany.com\/products\/saint-theodoric-les-sablons-chateauneuf-du-pape-2023-750ml","provider":"Redneck Wine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
