Another terrific effort from this estate, the 2018 Chateauneuf du Pape Deus Ex Machina shares a sense of elegance with its vintage stablemate, the La Combe des Fous. Kirsch, stone fruit, black cherries, licorice, pomegranate…the list could go on and on. And while the wine is undeniably full-bodied, it doesn't come across as heavy or hot, instead being built on a lacy, silky structure of fine tannins and rounded acids that linger on the finish.
Alluring, with gently mulled Damson and raspberry notes infused with black tea, incense and garrigue accents. Subtle mineral edge adds length to the finish while pulling everything together nicely. Grenache and Mourvèdre. Best from 2021 through 2033.
