Made from Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre, the 2013 Chateauneuf du Pape La Cour Des Papes sports a surprisingly inky color as well as classic notes of blackberries, black currants, licorice and underbrush. Medium-bodied, subtley straightforward and commercial style, it nevertheless has plenty of fruit, solid mid-palate depth and a good finish. Drink it over the coming 4-5 years.
