Still vibrantly green/silver in colour. Fresh and floral with lovely intensity and aromatic impact. Great length, very bright and mineral. Not as complex at the 2014, but fresher, straighter, and more saline. 40% Clairette, 30% Grenache Blanc, 15% Roussanne, 15% Bourboulenc.

94 Points – Decanter, Drinking Window 2020 – 2023


The 2013 Châteauneuf-du-Pape is more focused and tight than the charming Piedlong cuvee and possesses stony, mineral, and salty characteristics as well as notes of red currants, Provençal garrigue and dried pepper. Medium-bodied, firm, moderately concentrated and elegant, it’s not the greatest example of this cuvee, but should still have 10-12 years of longevity. Give it a few years in the cellar.
