the 2013 has acquired pretty tropical overtones that add exoticism to the lemon confit and floral notes

Fermentation and malolactic fermentation take place in steel

earth and sauvage hints add considerable depth to the dark berry fruit and cassis aromas

This is aromatically unlike any of the other wines in the range with its unusual nose of petrol

Shows youth and prowess in its structure

Grand Veneur, Chateauneuf Du Pape Vintage:2005 the 2013 has acquired prettyOpaque ruby. Sexy aromas of blackberry, cherry cola, minerals and incense. Precise and vibrant, with terrific cut to its intense flavors of bitter cherry and dark fruit preserves and licorice. Still youthfully tight and bound up but gains flesh and sweetness with air. Shows very good clarity and energy, finishing smooth, sappy and long. Josh Raynolds
