Note di degustazione
Offering more graphite, toasted spice and a hint of vanilla bean, the 2014 Châteauneuf du Pape Val de Dieu, which is always the most modern style cuvée from the estate, is medium to full-bodied, beautifully concentrated, and has present, yet ripe tannin on the finish. Made from 64% Grenache, 28% Syrah and the 8% Mourvèdre, aged in demi-muids and new barrels, it will benefit from a year or two in bottle and keep through 2026.

Fresh thyme, jammy black raspberry, rocks and stone scents power the wine. On the palate, the wine is fresh, medium bodied, elegant and refined, with a sweet kirsch, finesse driven finish. 92 Points
(raised in new demi-muids and barriques for 18 months): Deep ruby. Fresh dark berries, cherry liqueur, licorice, woodsmoke and a strong note of vanilla on the deeply perfumed nose. Concentrated and powerful but energetic as well; juicy acidity gives lift to oak-accented blackberry and cherry-vanilla flavors. The long, smoky finish features supple tannins, a touch of mocha and lingering oak spice. There's plenty of fruit here but the lumber presence is pretty pronounced and I hope it learns to play nice by the time the wine is bottled.
Tasted blind. Blackish crimson. Fragrant and quite strict on the nose. Lots of rather severe tannin without quite enough fruit to back it up. Hint of cheesiness. (JR)
