This wine tastes marvelously rich, fat, and full-bodied, with terrific floral, herb, black-cherry, and pepper aromatics. Full-bodied, with excellent concentration, this juicy, succulent Chateauneuf du Pape can be drunk now and over the next 10+ years. This particular selection, first inaugurated by the Gonnet brothers in the eighties, is given a slightly different upbringing, with more small casks utilized than for their regular or Cuvee Classique Chateauneuf du Pape. Font de Michelle is another impeccably run Chateauneuf du Pape estate that makes top class wines that sell for modest prices! Importers: William Grant & Sons, Edison, NJ; tel.
