2010 CdP Blanc from Vieux Telegraph. I must be the only person on the planet, but I remain unimpressed the last few vintages, over priced & under delivering.

I ❤️ Beaucastel & Clos des Pape but always struggle w/ VT 😏 how RP gave this £47 drop 97pts is beyond me 😛 Yes it's young & needs time but it's not that complex & it's overly sweet - I'd revisit in 5+ yrs 👍 it has 94-96 potential but not yet 😉

🍷 Ruby red

👃 Red flower field & spiced cherry trees w/ olives, seaweed, herbs & damp mineral soil

👄 Med+ very sweet body of olive tapenade infused red cherry & blackberry jam w/ earthy mocha tones

🎯 Long earthy sweet cherry & b/berry finale but too sweet
