Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend

If only I could drink a C-D-P everyday…

Same notes apply - a very a sturdy wine.
Worthy of a sea shanty or two.

Garrigue, black and red fruit, brambly, slight pepper, hot, finishes with dried earth, but very tasty...

Lilacs and berries, fresh altitude air, and of course, allergy meds that allow this aroma to come through.

Deep black berry, prune, smoke, graphite. The elegance of this heavy handed beauty is astonishing. Smooth across the tongue, with a bit of raspy tannins that come out and let the acidity know who’s the boss. Highly enjoyable.

Proof that the French are correct about everything; 1000% Jerry.

Lunch wine, when in Chateauneuf with @Claire Owen.

I find this white CdP extremely typical. That radicated sour grapefruit that i always wish to find in blanc from this area. Not a monster, not a noble, but definitely enjoyble.

Good red fruit, slightly grippy, spice. Ok.

Eperdu 2010-_needed time but revealed nice plush fruit.

With a Salted Caramel Chocolat!
