The Charles Melton 'Nine Popes' pays homage to the renowned Châteauneuf-du-Pape wines, showcasing a remarkable balance of power and richness comparable to those from the Rhône region in France. This label is a staple in Matthew Jukes' esteemed list of the top 100 Australian wines. Aged for 24-28 months in brand new French oak, with 60% of it being new, the wine is then bottled without fining after a natural settling process. It displays a deep red hue and a delicate floral aroma, while the palate offers a structured and spicy experience with notes of sweet red fruit and florals that will continue to evolve with time. In true Popes fashion, it is a complex and indulgent wine.


"A rich and vibrant ruby-red hue. Blueberry, wood oil and dry leather aromas. A big and rich mouth-feel, dark berries, mocha and wood spices fill the palate, while the gravelly tannins compress and offer focus. The finish is long and lingers with a touch of warmth. There's serious latent power here, much of it will take time to unwind."
