Clos Des Papes Chateauneuf Du Pape Rouge 1.5Ltr

Clos Des Papes Chateauneuf Du Pape Rouge 1.5Ltr

Vintage: 2009
Description: Taking on some lovely forest floor scents, with polished wood and a touch of brown sugar to the strawberry fruit. It's full-bodied, really quite voluminous and powerful. Intense blackberry, liquorice and seared meat characters present themselves on the palate – this is big, structured, powerful and tannic. The alcohol is showing just a little bit, but there's a lovely menthol side bringing freshness. This was the product of a very long fermentation, so it was stressful to vinify. I've been lucky enough to taste this several times this year, and there is some bottle variation, but this was a particularly good one.
