A powerful yet smooth Chateauneuf, great producer that does solid wine even at the entry level wines, should have stocked on more :-) This 10 year old wine has a deep red color with a light tone of brown, rich ripe nose, full of black cherry, leather, licorice, plums, tobacco, cigar box, and a light touch of barn yard. Full rich body, deep, chewy, with firm yet well integrated tannins, nice acidity, long delicious chewy and dry finish. Still have time to mature, my score 90, drink to 2021 perhaps longer.

2005 vintage. Tastes younger than its age -- still good concentration. But tastes a bit raw around the edges, instead of smoothing out. Not sure if this will yet come together...
