Les Cailloux (Lucien et André Brunel)
Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend
Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhône, Rhône, France
PnP. Deep dark scarlet color. Warm floral nose. Notes of kirsch, black fruit, some herbs and a little soil. Impactful first sip, but a bit hot and lacking good structure to go with the ample fruit. Just ok.

Supremely delicious, although there's a little alc showing on the finish. I'm very sensitive to alc, so I detect it. 2005...one of the best vintages to boot.
