Porte Rouge Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2022 (OWC)

Porte Rouge Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2022 is a beautifully classic expression of one of the Rhône’s most celebrated appellations, showing both depth and finesse. As Domaine Porte Rouge’s Cuvée Tradition, it highlights the estate’s elegant style and its growing reputation as one of Châteauneuf-du-Pape’s exciting modern names.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows the deep, dark color expected from a serious Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The nose is expressive and layered, with garrigue, lavender, dried herbs, and ripe black fruit wrapped in subtle hints of chocolate and spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet refined, driven by mature black cherries, blackberries, and earthy Mediterranean herbs. The blend brings generosity and structure in equal measure, with a smooth texture and enough freshness to keep the wine feeling balanced and precise. It can be enjoyed now with decanting, but it also has the concentration and structure to evolve gracefully for around 10 years from the vintage.

Production
The 2022 vintage is made from 80% Grenache, 8% Syrah, 8% Mourvèdre, and 4% Cinsault, sourced from the Châteauneuf-du-Pape terroir in the southern Rhône. The grapes are harvested by hand, and cellar work is kept deliberately minimal to preserve the purity and character of the fruit. After vinification, the wine is aged for 24 months in large old oak casks before bottling.

Food & Serving
This is a natural match for roasted lamb, duck, game dishes, grilled beef, and Provençal cuisine with herbs and olives. It also works wonderfully with aged cheeses and rich stews. Serve at 16–18°C, and decant for at least 1–2 hours if drinking young to allow the aromas and texture to fully open up.

Producer
Domaine Porte Rouge has quickly established itself as one of the standout names in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, known for producing wines with both classic appeal and real personality. The estate has gained recognition for its restrained, terroir-driven approach and its ability to craft wines that capture the essence of the appellation. With Cuvée Tradition, the producer showcases the balance, complexity, and regional identity that have made it one of the most talked-about rising stars in the area.
