Note di degustazione
Fresh, elegant and layered, the 2006 Chateauneuf du Pape Boisrenard from the Coulon brothers is a field blend dominated by Grenache, yet includes all 13 permitted varieties. Destemmed, vinified in oak tanks and aged 18 months in small foudre, this beauty offers a terrific bouquet of black currants, smoked herbs, charred meat, creosote and licorice; while there’s a modern slant to the profile here, it still shows terrific southern Rhône soul. Medium-bodied to full-bodied, fresh, elegant and pure, with a youthful feel, it’s can be enjoyed anytime over the coming decade.

Re-tasted again at the domaine as well as from a magnum here in the States, the 2006 Domaine de Beaurenard Châteauneuf-du-Pape Boisrenard has fleshed out beautifully since I last tasted it over a year ago. The wine sports polished aromas of both red and black fruits, graphite, spice, and a touch of meatiness. While there’s still considerable structure present, the wall of tannin and firm core it showed just a year ago, is now much more civilize and the fruit has more depth as well. If drinking anytime soon, this can handle a double decant a number of hours prior to drinking.
Vivid red. Sexy scents of black raspberry, garrigue, minerals and rose. Nervy strawberry and raspberry flavors are impressively concentrated and focused, gaining richness with air. The finish is invitingly juicy, with lingering red fruit flavors.
Blackish purple. Concentrated claret style. Thick and tarry – almost burnt. An exaggeration of a wine – elixir of Châteauneuf? Wait and wait for this special bottling of all 13 cepages allowed! (JR)
