94 Points - Anna Lee C. Iljima
Summer raspberries and lilac petals perfume this fresh-fruited, juicy blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. It's plump on the palate but lifted by streaks of salty, dusty mineral notes and a cheery red-berry acidity. Soft, furry tannins are mouthfilling but well integrated. Irresistible young, the wine should maintain peak through 2030 at least.

92-94 Points
Smoking good notes of red currants, black cherries, garrigue, pepper, and hints of leather all emerge from the 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Cuvée Du Lion, a Grenache dominated cuvée that includes 20% Syrah and 5% Mourvèdre. Brought up mostly in concrete (there was 20% in old barrels), this classic, silky, elegant 2019 has good (maybe not great) concentration, terrific tannins, and a great finish. It’s going to sing with 2-3 years of bottle age and keep for over a decade. 10/6/2020
