Grand Veneur, Chateauneuf du Pape "Les Origines" 2003

Red.

Spiced red cherry jam, light clay/earth and licorice nose.

Deep, plush cherry jam mouthfeel, buffered in the mid-palate by acid/tannin synergy that clamps down on the front teeth. Impressive volume and follow through, but actually restrained/structured for a 2003.


$40
