There's a fair bit of new oak in this 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape, but the wine has absorbed it well. This medium to full-bodied blend of 50% Grenache, 40% Syrah and 10% Mourvèdre is fairly tannic yet smooth in texture and restrained in style, offering notions of milk chocolate, peanut and subtle cherry notes. Worth holding a year or two to give it time to relax and unclench.
