The Chat Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend
Evolved considerably since last winter; voluptuous and complex, brimming with mulled fruit, glycerine and chewy smoldered oak. Drink now.

Jun 17th, 2014Wow! Really earthy and bold, with solid structure and just the right amount of tanins. No style better than Chateneuf du pape in my opinion, and this is an excellent one...

Feb 22nd, 2019Lightish body - lighter than I would expect. Aromas of red licorice and fallen leaves. Sour cherries and earthy notes on the palate. Light acidity.

Oct 30th, 2015Rubied, semi-transparent. Nose of violets, vanilla bean, raspberry, with evolving notes of cherry pie filling - very inviting. The palate delivers red fruit with subtle oak notes. Lighter body than expected from a CDP, but delivers soft tannins and a sense of elegance. This effort is saved by a punch of red fruit with juicy acidity on the finish.
