"In contrast to the rather unyielding 2019, a tank sample of the 2020 Chateauneuf du Pape La Reine des Bois was friendlier and more approachable, more red-fruited and herbal. Full-bodied and perhaps a touch warm, but also fresh, silky and long, it's a lovely wine to drink while waiting for the 2019 to come around."
