Chateauneuf-du-Pape Mt Olivet des Pape

| Description: | '\"The luxury cuvee of old vines that is virtually all Grenache, the 2004 Chateauneuf du Pape 'Cuvee du Papet' is superb and probably the finest example of this wine since the glorious 1998. Kirsch liqueur dominates the nose, but one can also find licorice, high quality cigar tobacco, and plenty of raspberry notes. Deep ruby to the rim, this full-bodied wine has stunning concentration, moderate tannin, good definition, and a blockbuster finish. This is a sensational wine that should be at its best between 2008 and 2020.\" --Robert Parker' Region Description. (shah toe nuf doo pahp)—Situated on the sun-baked southern reaches of the Rhone Valley, this appellation grows a great number of grape varieties, but is best known for its full-bodied dry reds. As many as thirteen different kinds of grape can end up in one bottle, although most vintners use only three or four, especially Syrah, Mourvédre, and Grenache. |
