Note di degustazione
Not surprisingly, the Chaussys have made a brilliant 2011 Cotes du Rhone-Villages. A sleeper of the vintage, it boasts abundant aromas of kirsch, raspberries, incense and Christmas fruitcake. Drink this elegant, pure 2011 over the next several years. This tiny 22-acre estate situated in the northern tier of Chateauneuf du Pape was founded in 1950, but has been brought to brilliance by Chaussy family over the last decade. Daniel Chaussy deserves enormous credit for introducing the spectacular Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee du Quet as well as the Chateauneuf du Pape Le Tintot, which is 100% Mourvedre. Both the 2007 and 2010 Cuvee du Quet have garnered perfect scores, and the latter wine may be the wine of the vintage. Sadly, only 5,000 bottles are produced of this extraordinary blend of 80% Grenache (aged in neutral tanks) and 20% Mourvedre (aged in small oak casks).

Along the same lines, the not yet bottled 2011 Mas de Boislauzon Côtes du Rhône Villages (65% Grenache, 20% Syrah, and the rest Mourvedre and Carignan) is loaded with spice, roasted meats, toast, licorice, and exuberant red and black fruits on the nose. Dense and concentrated for 2011, this medium to full-bodied Côtes du Rhône is ripe, fleshy, and round on the palate, with a friendly feel, excellent freshness, and plenty of tannin structure. It will shine for 5+ years.
