Domaine Auguste Clape Côtes du Rhône 2023 is a blend focused primarily on Syrah, showcasing the region’s characteristic granite soils. The Southern Rhône experienced a warm growing season, yielding fruit that exhibits a blend of dark berry aromas with subtle herbal notes. There are hints of olive tapenade alongside a mineral backbone, providing structure. The 2023 vintage reflects a balance of ripeness and acidity, accompanied by gentle tannins. Auguste Clape has been a respected figure in the Rhône since the late 20th century, with his estate’s fruit sourced from the foothills of Cornas. This wine is an approachable expression of the region`s terroir.

Notes of dark cherries and dark wild berries mingled with flowers and violet preface the 2023 Côtes du Rhône from Clape, a moderately weighted, round and supple wine with a juicy character, elegant tannins and a long, floral and mouthwatering finish. Crafted from 50- to 60-year-old vines planted in sandy, granite soils, this is a nice, classic rendition. - Yohan Castaing
