Excellent follow up to the classic 2016 Vintage. Blend of Mourvèdre (30%), Grenache (30%), Syrah (15%), Counoise (10%) and the balance (15%) made up of other approved CDP varietals led by Vaccarese’. Aromas of red and black fruit, garrigue, leather and earth. Flavors of black raspberries, currants and cherries, Asian spices, smoked meat and truffles. Long and lingering (slightly spicy) finish and beautiful balance. Full bodied and dense, but not overpowering. Fine grained tannins and amazing complexity. Great now, but there is another decade (or so) of aging potential. Just incredible. — a month ago

Found a few bottles of this Syrah-heavy CdR, by 1995 Guigal was making over 1 million bottles of this gem that I paid less than $10/bottle for on release, this bottle had 2-3 inches of ullage, suspect cork seemed glued into the bottle neck, yet fresh, crisp acidity, a little Brett, but great balance, medium-bodied, this wine will still evolve, really lovely, even though it’s still ultimately a CdR to drink on a Tuesday night with grilled sausage!! — 15 days ago

Quite nice. Had in Vegas watching the bellagio fountains from our room. — a month ago
@Doug Powers as promised . Dry leaves and plums on the nose. In the mouth spices, cherry , earth and good acid . Certainly the magnum format kept this alive. However for me it had not become complex and had a very clipped finish. — 10 days ago

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.
Pretty nose of red and black fruits with light wood, wild flowers, spices, coffee, herbs, earth and black pepper.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with black currants, black plums, cooked cherries, spices, oak, licorice, earth, vegetables, spices, tobacco leaf, light forest floor and peppercorn.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy pomegranates.
This 9 year old red blend from Lebanon is still young and needs 10 years in the bottle to mature properly. Will continue to age nicely in the next 20 years. Showing good potential to become a 93+ point wine.
Needed 3 hours to open up properly, fresh and easy drinking.
Good by itself or with food.
A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Carignan and Cinsault. Aged in concrete vats and French oak barrels.
13.5% alcohol by volume.

Thats a drop offOk, not the best. First sip has a metallic taste. Better after it breathes a bit. Sept 2026 — a month ago

A delicious Grenache based blend from Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel. Complex and entertaining.
A great vintage in Châteauneuf-du-Pape that will show itself in the future.
Still young and will continue to age nicely in the next 15 years. Showing good potential to become a 94+ point wine.
I've had a few vintages of this wine and it is always delicious.
A great sipping wine that will also pair nicely with food.
