"The power and finesse of a truly great wine. A tiger waiting to pounce: gentle and sleek to look at, its power almost palpable, yet walking on paws of velvet. Then an explosion of black fruit: cassis, blackberries, black cherries and notes of roasting coffee, all fully expressed in a beautifully long finish." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"The 2018 Châteauneuf Du Pape Cuvée Trinité showed well, with a deeper ruby/plum color as well as classic notes of smoky red and black fruits, tobacco leaf, truffly earth, and ground pepper. Hitting the palate with medium-bodied richness, it has good mid-palate density, ripe tannins, and the balance and class to continue drinking nicely for 10-12 years." —Jeb Dunnuck "Certified organic and biodynamic, the 2018 Chateauneuf du Pape Trinite comes out of the bottle billowing aromas suggestive of cruciferous vegetables. There's a touch of mocha as well—a portion of the wine aged in 500-liter oak barrels—and dark plum and black cherry notes. Give it a rough decanting it you plan to drink it young. Once beyond that initial roughness, this medium to full-bodied effort is reasonably likable, with fine-grained, silky but firm tannins, ample concentration and a long, dusty finish." —Wine Advocate |
