Note di degustazione
Chateau Mont Redon’s 2006 Chateauneuf du Pape possesses a surprisingly modern feel in its black cherry, vanilla bean, licorice and spice box-driven bouquet. Always made in a medium-bodied, elegant style, this 2006 is no exception and reveals beautifully polished tannin, nicely integrated acidity and a clean, classy finish. The blend is 75% Grenache, 25% Syrah, 8% Mourvèdre and the balance other permitted varieties, all of which were aged in equal parts stainless steel and smaller barrels. It’s drinking beautifully today, but still has some upside and will have two decades of over a longevity when all is said and done.

Medium red. Vibrant red berry, floral and incense aromas, with a sneaky mineral undertone. Silky in texture, with deep raspberry and cherry flavors, a hint of musky herbs and mounting sweetness. The tannins are completely buried beneath the fruit, making a late appearance on the finish. This is already delicious.
Grenache Blanc. Creamy citrus. Slightly grainy and fresh. Quite light, hence short drinking window. (JH)
Regular dark crimson. Quite introvert with some oak influence. Very low key on the nose. Not especially Châteauneuf, more like a tight, oaked red wine. Not desperately successful. Half the wine was aged in Burgundian barriques apparently. (JR)
