Built on a 50\/50 blend of Grenache and Syrah, it represents a more concentrated, structured and age-worthy expression compared to the estate’s classic cuvée. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"487\" data-end=\"789\"\u003eThe nose is intense and layered, showing ripe black cherry, blackberry and plum, alongside liquorice, dried herbs, clove and smoky spice. There is a clear Rhône signature of garrigue, savoury complexity and mineral depth, with both red and dark fruit in balance. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"791\" data-end=\"1236\"\u003eOn the palate, it is full-bodied with a powerful yet refined structure, supported by ripe, firm tannins and significant concentration. Layers of dark fruit, spice and earthy notes unfold with depth and precision, leading to a long, persistent and savoury finish. The 2019 vintage is notably more structured and brooding, built for long ageing, with a drinking window extending well into the 2030s. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1238\" data-end=\"1888\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1238\" data-end=\"1263\"\u003eBen’s Recommendation:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1263\" data-end=\"1266\"\u003eAt Wine More Cellars, this is a serious “top cuvée Châteauneuf-du-Pape” — essentially a step above classic village-level wines and closer in style to flagship Rhône bottlings like Beaucastel or top Gigondas. Compared to standard Châteauneuf, this is deeper, more structured and significantly more cellar-worthy. It’s ideal for collectors or customers who enjoy powerful Rhône blends but want precision and ageing potential. This is not an immediate-drinking wine — it needs time or proper decanting. Drink from 2025 onwards or cellar for 15–20+ years. Perfect with lamb, game, slow-cooked meats or rich French cuisine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eInfo\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"height: 152px;\" width=\"846\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCOUNTRY\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePRODUCER\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMont-Redon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVARIETY\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGrenache \u0026amp; Syrah\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSTYLE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed Wine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVINTAGE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2019\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSIZE\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wine More Cellars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51183604203835,"sku":"MR19B1PLATEAU","price":430.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/6779\/7699\/products\/2017_Mont-redon_Chateauneuf-du-pape_Le_Plateau_De_Mount-redon.jpg?v=1776661910","url":"https:\/\/winemore.com.au\/products\/2019-mont-redon-chateauneuf-du-pape-le-plateau","provider":"Wine More Cellars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
