Brotte Barville La Fiole Vintage Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2010, France

#AgedWineTuesday

Pretty color of light ruby with a light brick rim.

On the nose prunes, raisins and fresh red berries.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with red cherries, currants, light wood, spices, dark chocolates, tobacco leaf, herbs, light earth and peppercorn.

This 15-year-old red blend from Châteauneuf-du-Pape feels very young, especially right out of the bottle, with lots of acidity to carry it much further. Complex and interesting. Elegant and rich.

An interesting wine with port-like aromas on the nose and feels very fresh on the palate.

Still young and needs a few hours to open up properly. Will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

Delicious by itself as a sipping wine and good with food too.

A blend of mostly Grenache with Mourvedre, Syrah, Cinsault and 4 other local Varietals. Aged in French oak barrels for 10 years. A tiny production of only 900 bottles made.

15% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

Good. Lacking a bit of energy but seemed closed. Balanced and pure. — 3 months ago

Very peculiar spectrum of aromas. Freshly cutted pineapple and pear. White peach and grapefruit. Very nice and long finish.
A bit flex on the mid palate but lingering pleasant finish — 6 days ago

Delicate dandelion wine white flowers and such flowing from the nose.

Tropical notes. Delicate and balanced. Zippy acidity but balanced nicely with flinty minerality.

Slightly underwhelming maybe based off the promise of what it could be — 4 months ago

Slighty better wine now (see my old notes) - First flat after 1 hour it shows. Elegant could benefit from a little more fruit. OK but not wow. For some reason her Pinots have not won me over. Certainly not Enderle & Moll level! — 2 months ago

A savory red blend from Pessac-Léognan, 70% Merlot and 30% Cab Sauv and since it is aged more than 50% of the Merlot on terracota amphorae the tannins are as silky and gentle as it can get. Velvety and fresh mouthfeel. Already started to pick its prime time. Drinking now or within the next 3 years will just as great! — 5 months ago
