| Description: | <p class="MsoNormal">(JD 98) Reminding me of a fresher version of the 2003, the 2016 Chateauneuf Du Pape Cuvee Reservee is another magical wine from Laurence Feraud that could come from nowhere else. I still remember tasting (and loving) this beauty from barrel. It doesn't quite have the sheer over-the-top decadence of the 2003, but it does have more elegance, while not giving up an inch with regard to texture and opulence. Dark ruby/plum-hued with a monster display of Provencal goodness in its garrigue, lavender, violets, kirsch, plums, and Asian spices, this full-throttle, ripe, sexy Chateauneuf du Pape has silky tannins, flawless balance, and a heavenly texture. It's going to benefit from 2-4 years of bottle age and drink well for at least 20-25 years.<o:p></o:p></p> |
