Wine Critic Reviews
A real “wow” wine, the 2022 Châteauneuf Du Pape Sanctus Sanctorum is sensational stuff. All Grenache raised in new demi-muids, it has a translucent ruby hue as well as a killer nose of wild strawberries, new leather, white chocolate, candlewax, and toasted spices. This carries to a full-bodied, deep, layered, incredibly powerful Grenache that has fabulous tannins, flawless overall balance, and a great, great finish.

There aren’t many people in the world who can pull off 100% new oak on Grenache, but Clos Saint-Jean can. Only bottled in magnum, the singular 2022 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Sanctus Sanctorum is an attractive beast, packing attention-grabbing raspberry jam, wild strawberry, menthol, cedar and bourbon vanilla alongside crushed flowers and spicy licorice. Round and velvety, the 2022 offers mind-boggling intensity and walks off the stage with a long and potent finish.
