Description

6 bottles in this lot. Great wine. IMHO this will eclipse the 1990. Raspberry, cherry and blackberry fruit on the nose are supported by lots of spice, garrigue and lavender. Stunningly complex and pure, the palate has notes of fig and currant where the sweet, grippy tannins provide a firm, fresh and beautifully-defined structure.

"Possibly the finest example of the Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee du Papet since Mont Olivet’s unreal 1990, the 2010 is a blend of 75% Grenache, 15% Mourvedre and 10% Syrah, all aged in foudre. The grapes come from the estate’s oldest vines (50- to 105-years-old), which were planted in the famous sites of Mont Olivet and Bois Dauphin. A extraordinarily deep plum/purple color is followed by notes of balsam wood, raspberries, black currants, lavender, garrigue, kirsch, licorice and underbrush. This quintessential Chateauneuf du Pape smells like an open-air Provencal market. It is a full-bodied, full-throttle, multilayered wine with exceptional concentration, power and precision. While it can be approached now, it will not hit its prime for another 3-4 years, and should last for two decades given how well the 1990 continues to perform."

Robert Parker: 99 points

A whopping 95.3 points average on Cellartracker and worth a look at the comments.
