Note di degustazione
Opaque ruby. Potent smoke- and mineral-accented aromas of red and dark berry liqueur, cola, incense and candied lavender, with a hint of star anise emerging slowly. Suave, deeply pitched black raspberry and blueberry flavors show excellent concentration and clarity, with notes of spicecake and succulent appearing on the back half. Deftly blends power and vivacity and finishes with harmonious tannins and outstanding length.

The 2012 classic Châteauneuf du Pape has plenty of darker fruits, truffle, underbrush and peppered meat qualities to go with a medium-bodied, rounded, yet mouth-filling and classic feel on the palate. It will drink nicely for over a decade.
Vineyard soil: galets, sand, clay-limestone. 30% Grenache Blanc, 30% Clairette, 30% Roussanne, 10% Bourboulenc. Greeny pale straw. Lots of green-fruit flavours and a little simple on the end. Finishes quite suddenly. (JR)
