A medium to full bodied CDP, with cherry, raspberry, tea and spice on finish, pretty good. www.winelx.com (963 views) | | | Tasted by jeffjohnsonjj@hotmail.com on 3/24/2016 & rated 88 points: This bottle was old school to the point of being oxidized, with minimal fruit coming through. Hopefully just a bad bottle. (3199 views) | | | Tasted by Dale Rattles on 2/27/2016 & rated 90 points: Significantly more interesting than my last bottle, now showing more classic CDP flavors and a more rounded, sustained finish. Better on day 2, which bodes well for 2017+. (3139 views) | | | Tasted by Darkhorn on 2/20/2016 & rated 90 points: Very nice. Classic style CDP. well balanced. 1 hr decant. (3250 views) | | | Tasted by Dale Rattles on 1/10/2016 & rated 89 points: Light red color, medium bodied. A bit more thin on the palate than other 2011s I've been drinking, but certainly pleasant. Strawberry and hints of spice, the Grenache is dominant in this CDP. While nice now, I hope it improves over 2016-17.

Clean, medium tannin, medium acidity, high alcohol. Medium plus intensity
honey and blackccherry on the first palate moving on to vanilla. Long finish (3068 views) | | | Tasted by Jeff Leve on 8/26/2014 & rated 90 points: From 70% Grenache, 15% Mourvedre and 15% Syrah, the wine opens with notes of barbecue, black raspberry and herbs. Elegantly elegant textured, with a medium bodied finish, the wine serves up a delicious kirsch note in the finish.

AOC Red Châteauneuf du Pape
Cuvée Hautes Brusquières
Grape varieties :
This cuvee is made up of Grenache (70%) and Syrah (30%)
The vines are between 30 to 50 years old.
Situation and soil type :
All the grapes come from the Brusquières plateau, in the north of Châteauneuf du Pape, where we can find the famous round pebbles and a clayey subsoil
Vats :
Wood and stainless steel with temperature control
Vatting :
Since 2000, we have decided to destem and to crush all grapes
Vatting lasts 3 to 5 weeks, depending on the vintage at a temperature between 25 and 30°C
A release or a punching of the cap is done every 2 days and pumping over every day.
The malolactic fermentation happens in barrels and vats.
Ageing :
Ageing continues in barrels and big oak tanks during 12 – 18 months depending on the vintage.
Tasting :
This is an atypical cuvee in terms of its complexity of aromas: deep spice, black fruit flavors and chocolate notes are overlaid with leather and a wild complexity.
This complex nectar needs a long cellaring to 15 years from vintage.
Further information:
The cuvee bottled without filtration is stocked in our warehouse air-conditioned at 16°C.
Red Rhone Blend Read about the different grapes used to produce red and white Rhone wines
On CellarTracker, Red Rhone Blend is the term for a wine consisting of two or more of the traditional 13 Southern Rhone grape varieties. Typically it's the Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre or Cinsault grapes, but can also contain the Muscardin, Counoise, Clairette, Bourboulenc, Picpoul, Roussanne, Terret Noir, Picardan or Vaccarese grapes.
A 'food' wine. Lacking pretension and intended for local consumption with local cuisine. Lacks the 'high' notes on a Bordeaux, more earthy and sharper so often a better partner to meat dishes with a sauce.

"As I have written many times in the past, the sweet spot for drinking Châteauneuf du Papes is usually the first 5-6 years after the vintage. Then they seem to go through an adolescent, awkward, and sometimes dormant stage, only to re-emerge around year 10-12, where the majority of wines are often fully mature. The best of them will continue to hold on to life (but rarely improving) beyond 15-20 years. It is only the exceptional Châteauneuf du Papes that will evolve for 20-25+ years, and those are indeed a rarity. However, things may be improving dramatically in terms of the longevity of Châteauneuf du Pape, although Grenache-dominated wines, the vast majority of wines produced in the appellation, are wines that do not have the polyphenol (extract and tannin) content of top Cabernet Sauvignons, Merlots, or Syrah-based wines. Nevertheless, the younger generation in Châteauneuf du Pape has taken seriously the farming in the vineyards. There are more organic and biodynamically run vineyards here than in any other appellation of France. The yields, which were already low, are even lower today (20-35 hectoliters per hectare), and of course, the proliferation of top luxury and/or old-vine cuvées gives a significant boost to the number of wines that will evolve past 25 or 30 years. The advantage of these wines is their broad window of drinkability." - Robert Parker
