Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
Unreal length. Extraordinary impressive legend of a wine. Essence of roussanne.

That’s a geeky wine. Not oxidized, but major golden amber color. It’s like drinking a dry Mr K.

Dark gold color with orange hues. An awesome nose of caramel, mango, and oak. The wine itself lacks discernible flavor but is very thick. Maybe it’s past drinking age but tough to tell. I went from excited to disappointed to not bad. It might actually benefit from a decant! I have the ‘06 and ‘07 as well, so might try that with one of them.

Outstanding. It has entered the third phase of its life. Light orange in color. Thick and rich. Intense honey suckle and heavy on the esters.
