Usseglio/Raymond Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Part des Anges 2019

96 points James Suckling: "An unusual and impressive Chateauneuf-du-Pape with a slew of elderberries and a licorice character. Enormous structure and concentration, the full tannins are already well integrated. The depth at the fundamental finish suggests this needs a lot more time to reach its best. A blend of 70% mourvedre, 20% grenache and 10% syrah. From Demeter-certified biodynamically grown grapes. Drinkable now, but best from 2024. (11/4/21)"

95+ points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape La Part Des Anges is a more Mourvèdre-dominated release (70% Mourvèdre, 20% Grenache, and 10% Syrah) that’s brought up in 80% new barrels. Inky hued, with lots of new oak in its cassis and peppery aromas and flavors, it has remarkable purity, full-bodied richness, and ultra-fine tannins. It’s young, unevolved, and in need of 5-7 years of bottle age, but it’s a killer Châteauneuf du Pape! Drink: After 2026. (11/3/21)"

93 points Josh Raynolds (Vinous): "Opaque ruby. Heady, oak-spiced black and blue fruits, pungent flowers, woodsmoke and licorice, along with a smoky nuance and a hint of cola. Broad and chewy in the mouth, offering cherry-vanilla, blackberry, candied violet and bitter chocolate flavors that turn sweeter through the back half. Finishes very long and spicy, with a repeating vanilla note and steadily building tannins. Drink: 2025-2035. (Oct 2021)"
