One of the last estates to harvest in 2003—picking as late as September 25, alongside Rayas, in a year that was otherwise exceptionally precocious—Clos des Papes took an extraordinary gamble in waiting for full phenolic maturity, despite alcohol levels already reaching 14% by mid-August. The resulting wine is the 2003 Châteauneuf-du-Pape from Clos des Papes, a remarkable achievement for such a torrid vintage, opening with a reductive, complex bouquet of menthol, licorice, dark fruits and spices. Full-bodied, dense and firmly structured, it’s focused and somewhat wild in character, with firm, tightly wound tannins and a long, precise finish. Atypical for the estate yet superbly constructed, it’s a testament to Paul-Vincent Avril’s refusal to compromise on phenolic ripeness regardless of the vintage’s extremes.
