The 2014 Chateauneuf du Pape Le Miocène (70% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 10% Mourvèdre) is surprisingly ripe and textured, and it’s a 2014 I’d happily buy by the case. Toasted spices, leather, savory red and black fruits, as well as Proven?al garrigue all emerge from this medium-bodied, polished, charming effort that’s ideal for drinking over the coming 5-7 years.
