10.9.13

2000 Chateauneuf du Pape, Clos des Papes

A deep ruby coloured dry red wine with significant legs.  It has quite pronounced aromas of red currant, licorice, black cherry, vanilla plus trace of smoke and earthiness. Medium acidity and soft ripe tannin. Quite full bodied with intense flavours of ripe plum, licorice, red cherry and minty note. Medium plus length with nice black cherry finish. (92) Good and smooth but the alcohol slightly sticks out, tho it is only 14%, maybe due to the Grenache.

Tasted on 21 December 2011
