Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 2000

I still dream of the ‘72 and for better or worse always compare to that. This is great, just not as mind blowing. Definitely blended great and still vibrant, but does have a green pepperiness to it that I was not expecting from Rhone. — 3 months ago

Not a compromised/oxidized bottle like our prior, we're doing great tonight! Ripe white peach and cooled yellow apple slices .🤤

Paired to duck confit (D'Artagnan) over green/red lentils with a hit of Dijon mustard to get the acid balance to perfection.
