Note di degustazione
The second vintage for the cuvee and a bigger, richer version of the classic cuvee, the 2003 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Renaissance offers lots of black and blue fruits, pepper, violets, licorice and spice on the nose. Full-bodied, loaded with fruit, concentrated and hedonistic, it has a hint of rusticity to its tannin, but should have no issues holding for at least another 4-5 years.

This is the second bottling of this special blend of 80 per cent centenarian Grenache with Mourvèdre and Syrah since this domaine made its appearance on the scene in 1999. Exceptionally dark purple. This wine is far from classic Châteauneuf but will give many red wine lovers lots of pleasure. Extremely concentrated style with very notable acidity for the moment. The tannins are pretty dry and there is at least 15 per cent alcohol on this wine. It would be interesting to see it in a blind tasting but Dominique Grangeon is certainly admirably ambitious. (JR)
The brilliant 2003 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Renaissance is 85% Grenache and 15% new oak-aged Mourvedre. Its dense purple color is accompanied by glorious aromas of creosote, crushed rocks, blueberries, blackberries, and flowers. With fabulous concentration, moderately high tannin, and a long, heady finish, this structured, big Chateauneuf requires another 3-4 years of bottle age. It should last for 15+ years.
