Note di degustazione
Despite the modern elevage that the 2003 Tardieu-Laurent Châteauneuf-du-Pape Vieilles Vignes receives, this seemed decidedly old world with a spicy, garrigue laced character. With air, subtle saddle leather, licorice and gobs of sweet cherry fruit come out to play and this displays great balance, medium to full body, nice texture and a long finish. I was more than a little impressed by this wine.

New oak was obvious in the 2003 Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes. In addition to licorice, black cherry, and raspberry, it is a spicy, full-bodied, expansive, powerful and muscular wine with relatively high levels of tannin and new oak. The oak needs to become better integrated, but it should mesh with the fruit over the next 2-3 years. I would cellar this wine for at least 3-4 years and drink it over the following 15 years.

Dark red. Powerful aromas of roasted cherry, plum and wild herbs. Lush, round and deep, offering impressive structure to support the flavors of cherry preserves and bitter chocolate. Finishes with strong suggestions of surmaturite
