The Châteauneuf-du-Pape Julien Barrot Barroche 2022 presents a rich tapestry of aromas, showcasing dark plum, ripe raspberry, and hints of garrigue. The palate is vibrant, with moderate acidity balancing the ripe fruit, and subtle notes of tobacco and dark chocolate emerging with air. The tannins are fine, providing structure without overpowering the fruit-driven character. The wine is made primarily from Grenache, complemented by Syrah and Mourvèdre, reflecting the traditional blending methods of this renowned region.
The estate, known for its commitment to organic farming practices, emphasizes terroir and authenticity in its wines. With an alcohol content of 15%, it showcases the bold yet approachable style characteristic of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Enjoyable now, it also has the potential for further aging, allowing the complexities to develop.

Vinous
Darker in character than the 2023 tasted side by side, the 2022 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Julien Barrot opens with vivid licorice, forest strawberry, lavender, dried herbs and a flicker of violet. Mildly shaped by fine-grained tannins, the full-bodied 2022 needs at least three more years in bottle before starting to show its full potential. An uplifting, savory conclusion rounds it up.Nicolas Greinacher1st November 2024
