Description

In his most recent 2017 tasting notes for the Wine Advocate on the magnificent southern Rhone 2007 vintage,Jeb Dunnuck has awarded the 2007 Clos des Papes Chateauneuf du Pape with the maximum 100 Points:-

"One of the great vintages from this estate,surpassing even the 1990,2000,2001,2003,and maybe the 2010 (time will tell with this one),the 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape from Vincent Avril delivers everything you could want from a wine.Full-bodied,intense and beautifully concentrated,with plenty of muscle and depth,it shows the hallmark elegance and purity of the estate,with sensational notes of kirsch liqueur,raspberries,incense,smoked meats and Asian spices.The blend is the normal 65% Grenache,20% Mourvedre,10% Syrah and the rest a mix of permitted varieties,brought up all in older foudre,and it's just now entering its prime drink window and has another two decades of longevity".
(100 POINTS).

Jeb Dunnuck (The Wine Advocate. February 2017).


"Paul Avril was a bigger than life vigneron,a visionary,and a great teacher,but Vincent has been in charge a number of years and rewarded his father with what I believe is the greatest Chateauneuf du Pape since the 1978 and 1990,the 2007.I have not only tasted the wine at the estate,but I purchased it for my cellar,and now have drunk it on three separate occasions out of bottle.It is unquestionably one of the greatest Chateauneufs of my lifetime,and I suspect it will merit a three digit score after 3-4 years of cellaring.The blend is 65% Grenache,,20% Mourvedre,and the rest small amounts of Muscardin,Vaccarese,Counoise,and Syrah.It exhibits probably the deepest color I have seen here and the finished alcohol is high (for Clos des Papes),15.5%.Still slightly restrained,because of its recent bottling,but wow,what potential complexity,mind-boggling richness,and compelling flavors are apparent.It is a sublime expression of the art of winemaking as evidenced by its dense purple color and big sweet kiss of kirsch,framboise,blackberries,licorice,roasted herbs,and smoked meats.It hits the palate with a fascinating combination of substance,power,full-bodied authority,yet extraordinary freshness,elegance,and precision.Give it 3-4 years of cellaring and watch it unleash its glory over the next three decades.This is a prodigeous wine of great quality from one of the most important reference point estates in Chateauneuf du Pape".
(99+ Points).

Robert Parker. (The Wine Advocate. #185. October 2009).


In 2017 Robert Parker said “In my 39 years of tasting, 3 vintages stand out for their greatness and singularity…1982 Bordeaux, 1990 Barolo/Barbaresco, and 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape. If there has been any revelation,it is….how steady and reassuringly the greatest 2007 Chateauneufs have evolved. So, even if some wines are still young adolescents,they provide profound drinking".
