The 2008 Chateauneuf du Pape Pierre d’Amber reveals good ripeness, elegance and a pleasant, straightforward style with abundant black cherry and black currant fruit intermixed with underbrush and soil overtones. Drink it over the next 3-4 years. A Chateauneuf du Pape oenologist produced these three cuvees. Both reds are made from 90% Grenache and 10% Syrah and are aged in a combination of small barrels and stainless steel tanks. The qualitative difference between these two vintages was less marked than expected.No known American importer.
