Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
Blend of 80% Grenache and 10% Syrah and 10% Cinsault, Medium Ruby with aromas of ripe black fruits and earthy pepper spice. On the palate complex rich flavors of cherry and blackberry, with oak, leather, cacao and earthy spice. Full body, well balanced, fine tannins, long finish, perfect now but will last another decade. Outstanding!

I felt a need for something fruity/earthy on this cold Chicago night to go with roasted chicken. Les Olivets is the most approachable CdP from this estate and I had this '07 winking at me. Very bright fruit and acid, with lingering minerality on the finish.

Deep ruby color. Aromas of black fruit, pepper and oak. Blackberry flavors, with leather and baking spices on the finish.

At 20 years old and still showing nicely. No signs of heat from the vintage
