Comtes de Neipperg St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2017

While I enjoyed this 2017 it would have been so much better with a little more aging. I would definitely get it again and hang onto it for a few years. — 6 days ago

Les Choregies Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2015

Unfortunately my bottle was compromised and some air entered. But the vinegar at the top quickly came off revealing an intense powerful wine although with some balsamic notes. Great with our lamb souvlaki. — 5 months ago

Châteauneuf-du-Pape White Rhone Blend 2001

Color is amber with lots of variation. Still retains some sweet red fruit amongst the dusty tanning. — 15 days ago

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 2012

There’s something about this producer and the red fruit I’ve only experienced from them that pus a smile on my face. Other wise I’m not a big cdp fan. — a month ago

Kirkland Signature.

Cuvée du Terroir des Papes Châteauneuf-du-Pape Grenache Blend 2021

Medium ruby in color; cherries, crushed gravel, and raspberries on the nose; intense acidity; medium tannins; tastes like sour cherries, raspberries, dried herbs, a hint of white pepper, and clay with a long finish. Probably needs to decant for a bit. More black fruit aromas after a decant. — 5 months ago

Chante Le Merle Vieilles Vignes Châteauneuf-du-Pape Grenache - Mourvedre Blend 2009

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 1998

This was a nice surprise, a basic CNdP bought recently at auction that probably only cost a few euros on release. Featuring an effusive nose of macerated cherry, iron, dates and blood orange, the palate is less spectacular but pleasant nonetheless, quite charming on entry but quickly fading. I cooked roast shoulder of lamb tonight with a lavender jus, and this was an apt pairing.

Edit: on night two, this had opened up and was a tremendous wine
