The estate and the wine |
|
|
A leading name in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Usseglio Raymond & Fils is one of the most in-demand estates in the region. Their wines are bursting with energy and balance, outshining many of their neighbors with a level of class and consistency that’s hard to beat.
A longtime favorite of the Parker Guide, their wines are getting tougher to find—each new vintage is gone in a flash. |

Shaped by a cool vintage and led by Grenache, the 2021 Red Châteauneuf-du-Pape fully embraces the charm of this approachable year. Expect bright red berry aromas, a hint of cinnamon, and touches of garrigue—all wrapped in a mid-weight, refined structure with juicy, fresh tannins. It’s a beautifully composed Châteauneuf built to age for at least a decade, yet already silky and seductive from the get-go. Rated 92/100 by our Selection Committee. |
