Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend

From Magnum. Stunning with our curried lamb.

Delicious, but still very young.

Typical Grenache nose, herbs, and a dark fruit profile. Palate is nice, tannins are round and silky, good weight and a certain richness. Aged well. 89-90

Nez typique de Grenache, des herbes et du fruit noir. Une bouche généreuse, gourmande , pleine et assez riche avec des tannins soyeux et ronds. 89-90

Lots of blackberries and black currants. On the palate, dark fruits with licorice and tobacco leaf notes.

Hard to match with all of the Cali wine but excellent cut for the vintage and life left

In a sweet spot now

Solid cndp. Nice spice. Sweet fruit.

Last bottle, of 6. Blew through the others. This juice is turned from pure fruit & oak 2 yrs ago to great tertiary notes. Wish I had more.

Still tannic, but coming along nicely. Won't be stellar, but very drinkable.

Surprising length at this price point.
