Chaupin Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2010

Another gem from #ericgudio s cellar but I can’t tag him. Bright bracing acid, sexy kirsch fruit on the palate, balanced tannin on the finish. #janasse #cuveechaupin #chaupin — 4 years ago

It's some serious juice that needs another 3-5 years to reveal it's true charms.

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2009

I have been down on Grenache of late, and this one started in the same way that has troubled me, but after 2 hours open it has shed some of the fat, retaining the opulence and a good line of freshness and tannin on the finish. Make no mistake, this is high in abv, but carries it well. The nose is a little raisen, with creme d'cassis, huge. The palate is big too but carries the weight well, the flavor is levels better than the nose. #janasse #grenache — 9 years ago

Prestige Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc 2007

Definitely not your average wine, but I think you have to understand typicity to get it.

70% Roussanne, 15% Grenache Blanc, 15% Clairette, the latter two 60+ year old vines

The very rare Janasse "Prestige" Blanc, only made in the best vintages such as we have here with the 2007.

Lisa guessed LdH at first. It's no wonder most critics say drink 2-3 years as that's about the size of the window before this starts to set it.

Deep gold in color, the nose is deeply penetrating, rich but fresh, with a line of salt and toasted almonds and apple skin (oxidative).

Complex on the palate, not as viscous as I was expecting, but deeply flavored and layered, not fully there, but starting to oxidize as some older CdP blanc can tend to. Temperature is important, as it warmed up more flavors and aromas came to the fore.

Vin de Pays de la Principauté d'Orange Viognier 2012

Great value, lots to like without being viscous or hot. Clean and pure, straight up white flowers, peach, apricot and some honey. #janasse #viognier — 9 years ago
