Mas De Boislauzon Chateauneuf Du Pape Cuvee Tintot 2019

Tintot is an old term for Mourvedre. The Mourvèdre-dominated (there's 15% Grenache) 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Cuvée Tintot reveals a dense purple hue as well as a gorgeous bouquet of blackberries, blueberries, cured meats, toasted spice, and peppery garrigue. Deep, full-bodied, and concentrated, it has a flawless mid-palate, ripe, building tannins, and a great, great finish. Aged 90% in concrete tanks and 10% in very old barrels, it ranks with the finest examples of Mourvèdre in the appellation and would easily stand beside Beaucastel’s famed Hommage a Jacques Perrin!
