"The 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Blanc Vieilles Vignes (100% Roussanne) could be called the “Montrachet of southern France.” A wine of great intensity, it boasts thrilling aromas of orange marmalade, nectarine liqueur, honeysuckle, peaches, and apricots. Stunningly rich with full body, terrific acidity, and a finish that lasts 45+ seconds, this is an amazing achievement." Wine Advocate #185, Oct 2009 |
