Needs some time to unwind in the glass. Opulent, robust when first opened. Beautiful wine and delivery of a big Chateauneuf du Pape.

Fantastic fruit, pretty seamless. Still has plenty of shelf life

I have a few bottles of this from ‘12 vintage. I was fortune enough that Elie Wine Company had a case of 2004 laying around. Since I am not a big consumer of these wines I thought it would be fun to try an older vintage and see what may be in store in the future. I tasted with @Todd Abrams. Old leather and cherry and starting to get some old cigar box/smoke. Old red brick in color. Threw it in the decanter for dinner so I am sure it may get more expressive as the day wears on.

I can't say I have had many 2004's but this was a real treat, still has time left. Good example of a CdP in an average year. I ranked this 3rd for the night.

Very good, but at peak or slightly past. Good freshness and balance
