Domaine Bois de Boursan
Cuvée des Félix Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend
Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
Still has some wood to digest, but pretty balance between ripeness, earth, and garrigue. Would prefer less cooperage, but quite good with grilled lamb and the summer version of the polar vortex. Rebuy.

There is some evident oak up front in this Cuvée Felix, lots of fresh, clean red-fruited Grenache which is less ripe than the 2015 CdP opened with this, some mineral and floral notes as well, very good balancing acidity which keeps the wine youthful (it really seems like a 10-year-old CdP), I’d say it will improve for 5 years and easily last 10 more years, but the long, lively finish means it’s drinking very well tonight!! Purchased at the domaine in early 2007.

Acheté au domaine des mains de M. Versino, où nous avons été tres bien reçu, un chic type.
absolument delicieux, un beau fruit rouge, tapenade, des herbes. C’est harmonieux, bien balancé, long finale, beau CDP de 18 ans. 1 pts d’extra pour l’accueil et le moment passé au domaine 😉
