Jeb Dunnuck 91
Brought up all in concreate, the 2022 Chateauneuf Du Pape Cuvee Des Deux Soeurs has a classic nose of spicy red and black fruit intermixed with ample peppery garrigue and sappy floral notes. It's medium-bodied, nicely balanced, and elegant, with fine tannins. Drink this beautiful, classic Chateauneuf du Pape over the coming decade.

An energetic, well-shaped and driven red. It shows notes of cherries, crushed strawberries, licorice and baking spices. It's full-bodied with fine tannins. Juicy center palate with a vivid core of berries mingling with the spices. Plenty of verve in the finish, with excellent length. Drink or hold.

Technical Details
Estate
The Domaine Tour Saint Michel has been a family estate for 3 generations. At first, Michel FABRE, the founder of the estate in 1930, passed on his passion to his son, Henri. Together with his wife Eliane, he developed and extended the estate. Today, the vines cover 40 hectares, including 35 hectares in the appellation Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Mireille, their daughter, is now in charge of the estate, inspired by the family tradition but also bringing a more modern approach. The estate is located in Chateauneuf-du-Pape, in the south of the appellation.
Tasting notes
The blend of power and subtlety found in Domaine Tour Saint-Michel's, Cuvee des Deux Soeurs reveals a multi-generational project to master the patchwork of geology and microclimates found in Chateauneuf-du-Pape. It opens with aromas of crushed black cassis set against a forest floor backdrop, while the medium-bodied palate delivers plum, cranberry skin, and clove notes.
