2005 Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Clos Saint Jean

2005 Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Clos Saint Jean

"The 2005 Chateauneuf du Pape, which is basically a blend of 75% Grenache aged in tank or large foudres and the rest Syrah, Mourvedre, and Cinsault, is exquisite, deeper, and richer than even the impressive 2006. Dense plum/ruby/purple with notes of incense, melted licorice, blackberry, and sweet cherry, the wine is peppery, spicy, rich, full-bodied, layered and chewy. It is a superb example of Chateauneuf du Pape that should drink well for 10-15 years." 93 points, Robert Parker Wine Advocate # 173
