Smells like Piedmont with its leather, tar, mint and balsamic aromas. The fruit has the body and the weight of Rhone, but also has excellent acidities and tannin structure. Has the unique sense of uniformity and integrity, uncompromising energy, unforced intensity and elegance without artificiality rare in Rhone. Lot of Chateauneuf du Pape are not much better than the best Cotes du Rhone’s, this is significantly superior to most in terms of the finesse, purity and structure. Without any doubt one of the greatest wine in Southern Rhone.
