Nothing like a bottle of 2011 Clos St. Jean Châteauneuf-Du-Pape for Easter!

Apr 21st, 2014Wow solid, silky smooth, a slightly sweet finish, mild acidity. This drinks right at it’s $40 price point. This matches a solid cab at that price point any day. If you paid more than $40 for this, you paid too much.

Nice ripe Grenache flavors. Just a little too much alcohol, for an entry priced CDP it works.

Soft, mellow but still powered by juicy dark berries this 2011 went very well with a fillet of pork with pasta, pesto and prosciutto. And some parmeggiano of course. France and Italy working perfectly together!

Feb 14th, 2017Nose: all the aromatic flavours of excellent Grenache first - then loads of spiciness, garrigue, elegant oak, roasted meat, black fruit (black currant, cherries)
Palate: very very fine and silky tannins, medium to high body, red/black fruit, nice oak, great complexity
(Avignon - Le Vin Devant Soi - enomatic)
