2007 Clos du Mont-Olivet, Chateauneuf-du-Pape 1x750ml

Robert Parker 92

The 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape (80% Grenache and the balance Syrah and Mourvedre) sports a killer bouquet of garrigue, kirsch, black currants and leather to go with a medium to full-bodied, concentrated, elegant and structured vibe on the palate. One of those wines that just screams a oeSouthern Rhone!" it’s still relatively youthful (I’d happily drink bottles today) and will hold nicely for another decade and then have a gradual decline after that.
