Somehow we forgot to rate it while we were drinking it (I think that's a good sign!), Laura liked it but it's one of my favorites, very good the second time around — 8 years ago

Expression de Terroir Éclats Calcaires Châteauneuf-du-Pape Grenache Blend

9.0

09 vintage: drinking beautifully, surprisingly lively on the palate, and not showing any sign of heat/XS alcohol which I often associate with this vintage. Medium bodied, quite plush, lovely bright red fruit characters with a "stony" background note. Very nice drink. — 9 years ago

Vieux Mas des Papes

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2003

2003- Don't be afraid of the vintage :) 80 Grenache knit beautifully w/ 20 Mourvedre. This was the precursor to VT's "Telegramme" bottling. Dark fruit & pronounced black pepper w/ a secondary savory/umami note. — 9 years ago

I need to drink more Rhone stuff. Starter suggestions?

Guigal makes well priced wines which show off the various appellations well. St Cosme too. Any Kermit Lynch imports. The Perrin family. In the Northern Rhone, Crozes-Hermitage & St Joseph are good appellations to start with as you can find great wines which are well priced. In the South, Cotes du Rhone & the various villages, Vacqueyras, Lirac, Corbieres, Ventoux. Gigondas will show more structured wines in the South.

Eventually work your way to Cote Rotie, CDP & Hermitage & weep for your wallet. :)

A La Gloire De Mon Grand-Père Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2010

Drank this entirely too young. Big restrained fruit with a nice tannin/acid balance, not hot or messy at all. Check in again in 5 years, would not be surprised to see this go a total of 15-20 years. — 9 years ago
