A silky, sun‑warmed Châteauneuf‑du‑Pape built on lush Grenache‑driven fruit with a firm undertow of Mourvèdre structure, the 2018 “Prestige” offers a refined composition of black raspberry and cherry liqueur over hints of lavender and spice, wrapped in poised sophistication. The balance is radiant, the texture seamless and the expression elegantly resonant.
