#france #chateauneufdupape #pts92

16/20 (89/100) Аромат ягод черноплодной рябины, копченого чернослива, тоффи, ментола и шоколада. Тельное с умеренной кислотностью и мягкими танинами. Не великое, но благородно стареющее вино.

My wife was impressed. That really says something.

Great minerality. Full lush and expressive. Tight tannins and a long finish. Lovely du pape.

Lackluster indeed. Was expecting more jam

Smoke, bacon on opening, it blew off.

This was truly tremendous. A really nice Chateauneuf du Pape. Jula was out of town, so I opted for something different than what she likes and this was really rewarding.

Still young but what the hell. Open, wait, savor... Enjoy!

This blend was incredibly good! 65% Grenache 20% Syrah 10% Mourvèdre 5% Cinsault

Really enjoyed this.
