Description

"The 2004 Clos des Papes Chateauneuf du Pape has turned out to be one of the finest wines of the vintage,tipping the scales at just over 15% alcohol and actually coming a few tenths of a degree within the 2003 and 2005 in terms of power and alcoholic degrees.The wine displays gorgeously sweet black raspberries,kirsch liqueur,and resiny,loamy soil notes.Medium to full-bodied,this blend of 65% Grenache,20% Mourvedre,10% Syrah and the rest some of the other red varietals that are permitted,is performing beautifully and is certainly one of the vintage's superstars.The wine is full-bodied,powerful,rich,and as accessible as
the 2003,but slightly fresher and not as muscular and thick.Nevertheless this is a top effort from the father and son team of Paul and Vincent Avril.This wine can be drunk now but can be cellared for 15-20 years.This exquisitely run estate continues to turn out wines of great fragrance,richness as well as flavour authority and integrity.The yields are among the lowest in the appellation".
(95 Points).

Robert Parker. (The Wine Advocate. #169. February 2007).


"Amazingly refined,with a pure,silky current of raspberry ganache and cassis flavors that glides along supple tannins.Hints of mocha,mineral,and garrigue check in on the long,pure finish.Has serious structure for the long haul.All about balance and finesse. Drink now through 2030. 6,880 cases made".
(96 Points).

James Molesworth. (Wine Spectator. August 2006).
