Tasting notes by Joe Czerwinski: ‘Predominantly Mourvèdre and fermented in demi-muids, the 2022 Châteauneuf du Pape la Part des Anges is another superb wine from the talented Stéphane Usseglio. Subtle pencil-sharp notes on the nose accentuate the raspberry and cherry fruit, while the full-bodied palate is wonderfully supple, lush and long.

The Cuvée :
A late ripening and very capricious grape variety, Mourvèdre is certainly one of the most demanding grape varieties in the south of France, especially when one is at the northern limit of its cultivation. This cuvée benefits from a fairly marked ageing process to accompany the tannic power of the grape variety. When a wine is put into barrel for ageing, part of its volume evaporates, and it is called "LA PART DES ANGES". La PART DES ANGES is a rather special cuvée for a Châteauneuf du Pape since it is the mourvèdre that dominates the blend (70%), followed by Grenache (20%) and a little Syrah (10%). You should decant if you wish to taste this cuvée before its first 2-3 years of aging.
