Brand new release, quite frankly much too young to assess fairly. Very muted aromatics, muddled fruit and slightly vanillin character going on. Minerality presents on the finish, but overall the initial impression is one of high alcohol, mega extraction and the potential for brilliant fruit way down the road. Retasting commences tomorrow night.

Drinking great. Very good example of relatively young chateauneuf du Pape. If you can find it, get it and drink it!
