    Domaine Chante Cigale 2017 Red (Châteauneuf-du-Pape)

    This is an intoxicating, intriguing wine that introduces itself with whiffs of bramble and forest, charred plum and crushed pepper. A Grenache-dominant blend of Syrah, Mourvèdre and Cinsault vinified with no new oak, it offers profoundly ripe blackberry flavor marked by a swathe of velveteen tannins and zips of tart cassis acidity. Inviting already but should improve through 2030.
