The 1995 reveals a less flattering style than the 1994. It offers a spicy, peppery nose, better acidity, but not the richness or intensity of the 1994. It will certainly age longer given its structural profile. Last tasted 6/96.

In 1995, both a regular cuvee and Cuvee Prestige were produced. Both are tannic, backward wines. The 1995 Chateauneuf du Pape reveals a less flattering style than the 1994. It offers a spicy, peppery nose, better acidity, but not the richness or intensity of the 1994. It will certainly age longer given its structural profile. This wine was tasted between June 1 and June 16, 1996.I have written many times about the extraordinary terroir this estate enjoys. Gorgeously situated on the rocky plateau behind the village of Chateauneuf du Pape, Cabrieres is located next to one of the appellation's most renowned under-achievers, Mont-Redon.Importers: Parliament Wines, Atlantic City, NJ; tel.
