Tasting note
Bright ruby. Dark berry and cherry pit aromas are lifted by notes of fresh lavender and white pepper. Densely packed dark fruit flavors pick up a bitter edge with air, along with a touch of licorice. Pretty serious for a 'basic' Chateauneuf, finishing with good energy and tannic grip. Score - 89-91. (Josh Raynolds, vinous.com, Jan. 2014)
