The 2003 Chateauneuf du Pape is a big, fruity, tasty wine. Quite soft, it will certainly require consumption over the next 4-7 years. It is elegant, attractively plump, with plenty of smoky herbs intermixed with black cherry notes and a bit of licorice and earth. Represented by Russell Herman, Berkeley Heights, NJ; tel.
