Rich black cherry and strawberry fruit with impressive density and palate weight. The balance is good with fur-coat tannins and admirable freshness. Yet again this vintage turns out a wine seemingly far too good for the climatic conditions – but the evidence is here. Will be ready much sooner than the Vieilles Vignes cuvée and is very close if not equal in quality but just in a less robust structured style. Parcels of Grenache planted on lieux-dits Chapouin La Janasse and La Crau the oldest planted in 1912. (Drink between 2030-2043)

The normal blend of the three parcels and all Grenache from the Chapouin lieu-dit that was fermented with a 30% whole clusters the 2022 Châteauneuf Du Pape Cuvée Chaupin reveals a medium ruby hue to go with gorgeous notes of framboise sappy garrigue spring flowers and crushed stone. These carry to a medium to full-bodied concentrated Chaupin offering terrific overall balance beautiful tannic structure and a great finish. As always this cuvée shines for its incredible finesse and elegance. Drink bottles over the coming 10-15 years. It reminds me slightly of the 2011. Looking at the two top cuvées the 2022 Châteauneuf Du Pape Cuvée Chaupin (100% Grenache fermented with 50% stems and brought up in foudre and demi-muids) is up-front and sexy with classic wild strawberry and kirsch notes as well as Provençal herbs licorice and spring flowers. It's pretty medium to full-bodied has fine integrated tannins and outstanding length.
