Domaine Paul Autard, Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée La Côte Ronde (2016) 750ml

Wine Spectator Score: 92 points
WS Tasting Note: Ripe, juicy and still a bit compact, with a core of dark plum and blackberry paste flavors studded with licorice snap, fruit cake and sweet toast notes. Good energy and a flicker of [i]garrigue[n] keep this honest. Best from 2020 through 2030.   −JM
