This has power and poise, with garrigue, plum, licorice and raspberry expertly framed by a lot of mineral energy and graphite shavings. Refined and pure, with integration from start to finish. Some finely cut tannins maintain the focus and form. Grenache, Mourvèdre, Syrah and Cinsault. Drink now through 2035. 2,350 cases made, 500 cases imported.

One of the more successful 2021s, Marcoux's 2021 Chateauneuf du Pape combines notes of black cherries with hints of tar and black olive. It's medium to full-bodied, silky and elegant, with decent length and plenty of charming, early-drinking appeal.

Bottled in April, the 2021 Châteauneuf Du Pape is mostly Grenache that was all destemmed and was raised in foudre, tronconique, and concrete tanks. It has a pretty, medium-bodied, elegant style as well as both red and black fruit, peppery herbs, and violet notes. Showing the fresher, more mid-weight style of the vintage, it's balanced, has fine tannins, and outstanding length. It has a more expansive, seamless, pleasure-bent style than most and is one of the top base cuvées in the vintage. Bravo.

The Estate

Domaine de Marcoux is a respected estate located in the heart of Châteauneuf-du-Pape, in France's Southern Rhône Valley. The domaine has been in the Armenier family for generations, with sisters Catherine and Sophie Armenier taking over the reins in 1990. They were pioneers in biodynamic viticulture, converting the estate to this practice in 1991, making Domaine de Marcoux one of the first in the region to do so. The estate is known for producing wines of exceptional purity and elegance, with a focus on expressing the unique terroir of their vineyards.

Biodynamic Balance Conquers Heat

At Marcoux's biodynamically-farmed parcels, the 2020 season began early and remained warm throughout, with the estate's old vines and varied terroirs proving crucial for balance. The different soil types across their holdings, from the sandy soils of Charbonnières to the galets roulés of Crau, helped maintain freshness during the intense summer heat. Sophie and Catherine Armenier's practiced hand with warm vintages resulted in wines that capture both power and Marcoux's signature elegance.

Marcoux's Triumph of Finesse

The 2021 growing season in Châteauneuf-du-Pape was marked by spring frosts, a cool summer, and rain during harvest. At Domaine de Marcoux, meticulous vineyard management and strict selection were crucial. The biodynamic practices of the estate helped maintain vine health, resulting in a wine that, while lighter than some years, beautifully expresses the freshness and aromatic complexity of the vintage.
