93-95 In the same ballpark, the 2017 Châteauneuf Du Pape Le Plateau comes only from the Mont Redon plateau and is a limited release based on 60% Grenache and 40% Syrah brought up in a mix of used and new barrels. Its saturated purple color is followed by a rocking bouquet of black raspberries, cassis, graphite, violets, and crushed rocks. With plenty of background oak, terrific depth of fruit, full body, and ripe, present tannins, it’s another balanced, age-worthy effort from this estate that should be snatched up by readers. Give bottles 4-5 years and enjoy over the following two decades. ... More details

Steeped plum, blackberry and black currant fruit forms the core, with lots of charcoal, warm earth, bittersweet ganache and tobacco notes filling in through the slightly burly finish. Solid energy provides support throughout. A gutsy throwback. Grenache and Syrah. Best from 2023 through 2038. 40 cases imported.

Impressive ripeness and depth for this vintage. Plenty of meat, floral and graphite aromas, as well as black plums. Round and silky, in spite of the generous tannins. Long and refined finish with more than enough power. Sustainable. Drink or hold.

The 2017 Chateauneuf du Pape le Plateau—the only one of these four vintages to be bottled—is velvety and forward, with notes of ripe cherries, cedar, vanilla and mocha. It's full-bodied, but not overbearingly tannic, making it approachable already. Only the second vintage to be produced, it's a 60-40 blend of Grenache and Syrah that matured in a mix of tanks and new barrels.

Aged for 18 months in a combination of new and old oak barriques and then another year in stainless steel tanks, the 2017 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Le Plateau de Mont-Redon checks in at 15.5% alcohol. Pale ruby-colored, it wafts from the glass with enticing aromas of ripe raspberry, forest strawberry, blackberry, black cherry, leather, tobacco, cloves and a pinch of white pepper. Full-bodied, well-balanced by lively acids and framed in velvety tannins, it concludes with a savory finish.

Region: Rhone Valley

For over two thousand years, the southern French region of the Rhone Valley has been home to wine-makers and wineries of many different types. The ancient Greeks were the first to discover that a wide range of grape varietals can flourish in the rich soils and micro-climates which typify the region, and little has changed to this day. In the modern age, the Rhone Valley is recognized around the world as the home of excellent quality white, red and rosé wines, as well as some of the most highly respected blended wines on earth. The region is split into two distinctive sub-regions, with the cooler, continental northern sub-region producing primarily Syrah, Marsanne, Roussane and Viognier wines of exquisite quality, and the hotter southern sub-region growing a much wider variety of grapes.
