Description
Drinking spectacularly well, the 2010 Châteauneuf Du Pape would handle itself admirably in a blind lineup of the top special cuvées of the appellation. Revealing a deep ruby/purple hue, it just about jumps from the glass with notes of kirsch and blackberry fruits interwoven with notes of licorice, garrigue, peppery spice, and incense. Rich, full-bodied, concentrated, and just loaded with character, enjoy this rock star bottle of Châteauneuf du Pape over the coming decade. I’m glad a bought over a case on release.
