Chave/J.L. Sélection Côtes-du-Rhône Mon Coeur 2020

92 points Josh Raynolds (Vinous): "[$32 list] Shimmering ruby color. Lively red and blue fruit and floral aromas are sharpened by a spicy suggestion of white pepper. Juicy and broad on the palate, offering appealingly sweet black raspberry and boysenberry flavors that become firmer on the back half. Supple, even tannins shape the finely etched, clinging finish, which leaves a suave, floral note behind. Drink: 2022-2027. (Dec 2022)"

90 points Wine Spectator: "A generous, ripe red, with blackberry puree, sappy black licorice and violet notes that are round and supple on the palate. Gains balance from a refreshing beam of singed thyme and iron, while the finish is tied up nicely with firming, mesquite-tinged tannins. Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre. Drink now through 2025.
