Viscous and glass-clingy, color is deep purple (!); ripe blue plums, red cherries, and blueberries, minerality, lavender, and somber oak notes; rich and structured with high alc (15%) and acids but softer tannins, very fruity like plumjuice, mouthfilling but very dry and short on the finish. These half-bottles should no doubt rest longer, but they don’t last long in my cellar.

May 22nd, 2021Elegant as always, plums, herbs, thyme, charcuteries on the nose; high acids, tannins, and alcohol but well balanced.
Contains GSM grapes plus counoise and cinsault; don’t know the percentage but syrah notes dominate the nose.

Still youthful, but open. Any fan of big American Pinot noir should check out chateauneuf: epic fruit that's infused with energy and clarity.

Loved this CdP and a very good price as well. Ripe and lush with blackberry, cassis and licorice. Full bodied and and overall outstanding.
