Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend

Not fruit forward…leather, licorice, cherry pits. Sipping this with a cheese, olive, fig board on our 25th wedding anniversary. 2015 $38 at Mahan’s

Big fruity nose with hints of lavender and oak. On the palate you get cherry pie, pomegranate, cherry cola, cedar, oak, rosemary, menthol, cinnamon, clove, and sage. Medium plus tannins, high alcohol, and high acid.

Heavy pepper, anise and raisin

Red apple, red currant, fir, ash wood

Spicy + fun 🌶. Literally tastes like ground pepper from McCormick.

Unfortunately bottle was corked.
