Looking for a ready to drink Chateauneuf du Pape that combines elegance with power, and doesn't break the bank? Yes please! A traditional blend of Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre, aged in 30% new French oak barrels, you get a lot of tannin, flavors, alcohol, but kept very fresh. It's a perfect expression of the winery style that is just starting to hit its window.

Jeb Dunnuck: 93 Points

"Lots of ripe black fruits (blackberries, black cherries) emerge from the 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape Les Hauts De Barville, another complex, medium to full-bodied, wonderfully textured 2020. Herbes de Provence, sweet garrigue, and peppery nuances define the nose, and it’s already drinking nicely, yet should evolve for a decade." Jeb Dunnuck, 92 Points

Wine Spectator: 92 Points

"Exuberant and expressive, this offers cherry coulis, raspberry, red licorice and warm earth notes that are juicy and open-knit, yet propped up with snappy acidity, a refreshing surge of fine mineral and a note of tar. Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre. Drink now through 2030." The Wine Spectator, 92 Points

Vinous Media: 92 Points

"Checking in at 15% alcohol, the 2020 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Les Hauts de Barville is a shimmering pale ruby. It mixes bright aromas of red and black cherry, raspberry, strawberry, cloves and wood smoke. Full-bodied, concentrated and wrapped in ripe tannins, refreshing acidity balances it before closing with a pleasant finish." Vinous Media, 92 Points

Wine Advocate: 92 Points

"A solid effort by the Brotte team, the 2020 Chateauneuf du Pape Les Hauts de Barville is 76% Grenache, with the balance split between Mourvèdre and Syrah. Scents of cherries, suede and dusty earth mark the nose, while the medium to full-bodied palate is a bit taut, but nicely so, with an attractive push-pull between ripeness and acidity, plus silky tannins on the long, expressive finish." The Wine Advocate, 92 Points
