Clos des Papes Chateauneuf du Pape Rouge 2008 Chateauneuf du Pape Rhone – Red 750ml/Btl 12/case

Description

Joe Czerwinski: Undoubtedly one of the best Chateauneufs of the
vintage, Clos des Papes's 2008 Chateauneuf du Pape was in
surprisingly fine form. Full-bodied but wonderfully silky with age,
it shows developing aromas and flavors of tree bark, cola, dried
spices, red cherries and white button mushrooms. While I wouldn't
expect it to last forever, it should provide delicious drinking
over the next 5 years or so. It was made from tiny yields of 16
hectoliters per hectare and reached 14.7% alcohol in what was a
challenging vintage in the Southern Rhone.
