Approximately 90% Grenache, 4% Mourvèdre, 4% Syrah, 2% Cinsault and 2% Counoise, averaging 80 years of age. The 2022 \"Girard\" is a beautiful wine and one of the finest values of the AOC. \"\u003cem\u003ehealthy dark red robe; the bouquet has a nicely sunny sweep led by red cherries, with an inner sense of thyme, local herbs. The palate starts with pleasing oiliness, connects well, has a terroir presence with intensity in its richness but never too much offered. It’s a genuine, rather stylish Châteauneuf, more complete than the 2023, plenty of engagement, with sustained length that for now brings in some grain-rockiness. This will be on wheels around eight years’ old, in a large balloon glass...\" (\u003c\/em\u003edrinkrhone) While the 2022 is supple and velvety in its youth, be sure to cellar some - best perhaps 2028 - 2040.
