"The first vintage for the cuvee and drinking beautifully today, the 2004 Chateauneuf du Pape Pure is easily one of the greatest wines from this slightly unheralded vintage. Possessing shocking depth and richness for 2004, with lots of kirsch, licorice, underbrush and assorted meatiness, it's full-bodied, ripe, voluptuous and downright sexy on the plate."

Spans the Syrah-driven northern crus of Cote-Rotie and Hermitage and the Grenache-based blends of the warmer south, led by Chateauneuf-du-Pape. Its wines are known for power, spice and warmth.
The southern Rhone's most famous appellation, blending Grenache with Syrah, Mourvedre and more into rich, warming, spice-laden reds from galet-strewn soils.
