Cristia's 2016 Chateauneuf du Pape is a rich, ripe, slightly warm offering that's a solid representative of the appellation. Cherry fruit picks up pepper and anise notes on the supple finish. Full-bodied and slightly open-knit, it should drink well during its first decade.
Quite ripe and alluring, with a lush wave of raspberry and plum pâte de fruit flavors rolling through, inlaid with light anise, cinnamon and black tea notes. A subtle shiso leaf echo underscores the finish and finely beaded acidity carries it all deftly. Very long. Best from 2020 through 2035.
