delicious and palate coating medium weight flavors possess an attractive texture while delivering fine length on the balanced and youthfully austere finale

fine-grained tannins

dominated finish

An impeccably balanced Chardonnay but today the wine's fruit is quite restrained

Cros de la Mure, Chateauneuf Du Pape other_regions_italy (88-91)/2015+Saturated ruby. Exotically perfumed scents of blueberry, mulberry, fruitcake and incense. Open knit dark berry compote flavors provide impressive palate coverage, with velvety tannins providing shape. Expands with air and picks up notes of candied licorice and mocha that carry through a very long, spicy, warm finish. This is drinking well right now especially if you like powerful, superrich Chateauneuf. Josh Raynolds
