9.2

Light golden in color.

Pretty nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing lemons, yellow apples, spices, light earth and herbs.

Long finish with lemons.

This is a delicious Roussanne from Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Well balanced with nice complexity. Rich, and showing lots of fruits.

Not a traditional Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc in style, and very interesting.

Fruity, and already Delicious. Elegant and feels very young. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years. Would be nice to revisit it in 5 years and see how it evolves.

Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.

100% Roussane grapes from old vines, were aged for 6 months in new French oak barrels. A small production of only 7,000 bottles.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

Wowza this is good. 80% Roussanne, and it shows. I love that grape. Such richness, and though the acidity is low, there’s great mineral tension here. So rich and enveloping. — 8 months ago

Impossible to find in states anymore. They don’t export. Brought home from France. Predisposed to love it. And I do. Classic CdP. All that you want and expect. (You know it. I don’t have to list it.) balances and long finish. 2022 — 24 days ago

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish/ brick rim.

Light nose and medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity and mouthfeel.

Showing raspberries, cherries, plums, mediterranean spices, chocolates, earth, herbs, light forest floor and peppercorn.

Long finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a very tasty GSM blend from Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Spicy and entertaining. Rich and fruit forward with light earth notes.

Nicely balanced, and easy drinking right out of the bottle. The alcohol is nicely integrated by now.

This 14 year old is still tasting very fresh on the palate. Nicely aged, and will continue to drink nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

Interesting, and good by itself or with food.

A blend of equal parts of Grenache, Mourvèdre and Syrah. Aged in large French oak barrels. A tiny production of around 1,000 bottles.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

GOSH this blend of Roussanne, Clairette and Grenache Blanc makes for a poised, silky and aromatic but elegant bottle I’d imagine paying twice as much for. The nose promises stone fruit and incense adventure, while the palate is cozy, adding warming spice, lanolin and honeydew melon, along side hints of wet stone to keep it all fresh. J’adore, je affor(d). — a year ago

Blend of 70% Grenache, 17% Mourvèdre, 10% Syrah & 3% Cinsault, deep Ruby color with aromas of berry fruits, oak and floral spice. On the palate flavors of black cherry and blackberry with oak, herb spice and floral notes. Wine was complex and elegant with fine smooth tannins, long fruit and spicy finish. Very Nice! — 24 days ago

Opened the day before with half the bottle remaining. The 2007 CdR Villages pours a deep purple color with an opaque core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of ripe and desiccated dark brambles, red and purple flowers, open pasture land, olives, some black pepper, leather and organic earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium acid. Confirming the notes from the nose, the finish is medium+. This is an impressive wine despite the rather modest designation, especially when you consider it’s nearly 18 years old! Then again, the talent behind this wine should yield a solid wine (Pegau & Cailloux). Drink now though it could easily see its 25th birthday if you must hold one longer. — 5 months ago
