Description

The 2022 Domaine Santa Duc Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Crau Ouest is a structured Southern Rhône red from the renowned La Crau sector, showing blackberry, dark cherry and plum with garrigue, black pepper and earthy spice.

On the palate, it is full-bodied and focused, with vibrant acidity, firm tannins and layers of dark fruit, dried herbs and savoury spice. The finish is long, dry and mineral-driven, with the structure to develop further in bottle.

Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for Rhône drinkers seeking a site-focused Châteauneuf-du-Pape with depth and savoury complexity. Best enjoyed from 2028–2042. Pair with slow-roasted lamb shoulder, venison with rosemary, beef cheek bourguignon or wild mushroom gratin.

About the region

Rhône Valley · Châteauneuf-du-Pape

The Rhône is really two regions under one name. In the north, between Vienne and Valence, Syrah grows alone on steep granite terraces at Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, Cornas and Saint-Joseph, while Viognier makes the perfumed whites of Condrieu. Further south the valley widens and warms, and Grenache leads blends drawn from a long list of permitted varieties at Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas and Vacqueyras. The two halves share a river and little else.
