Cuvée Anonyme Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend

Exc

I love how this wine is developing - still very youthful but with added tertiary elements bringing depth to the wine. Smoke, blackberry, strawberry, white pepper, leather, grilled meat, bacon fat, red cherry, black cherry and more. Gorgeous silky texture, very mature tannins.

A gorgeous wine that already drinks well though it will develop for another decade at least. Deep Ruby color with a very intense and expressive nose of black olive, bay leaf, blackberry, crushed stone, wild thyme and lavender (the haunting garrigue) and loads of violet. A lovely wine that sends agile on the palate with harmonious intensity. Crisp acidity and a Long finish give great promise in food pairings

Great balance, but didn’t give me the promised soul and depth of a wine for $40. Affordable for the AOC but overall I would prob not spend the money again

Lush, low acid, delicious. (2016 vintage)

Very powerful and expressive nose, on fresh and candied fruits: blackberry , plum, blueberry, raspberry, herbs, lavender, balsamic touch. The body is medium+. Bright and peppery mint freshness, counterbalancing very well the 15 degrees ABV. Beautiful quasi- saline mineral final on roasted notes and licorice. Superb combination with Pasta al Truffles and Pecorino.

Nez très expressif, puissant sur les fruits frais et confiturés: mûr, prune, myrtille, framboise, aromates, lavande, touche balsamique. Le corps est moyen +. Fraîcheur mentholée vive et poivrée, contrebalançant très bien les 15 degrés ABV, qui ne se font pas sentir. Belle finale minérale quasi saline sur des notes torréfiées et réglisses. Superbe association avec des Pastas Truffes et Pecorino.

Smooth, great fruit, full bodied. Didn’t decant, but didn’t need it. Wonderful paired with delicious ribeyes. Fairly priced.

Excellent. Great value

Full and flavorful and dynamic. Needs time to decant. But would drink again and constantly.
