Community Tasting Note

MicklethePickle Likes this wine:

Wednesday, April 24, 2024 - This actually is not the Celestins—no reserve was produced in 2013. But not to worry. After only a few minutes, this is already showing very well. Gorgeous leggy ruby, pretty and abundant fruit aromas in the nose (strawberry and raspberry), and a palate that seems much less Grenache-centric than most CdPs. Palate is a little drying (but not dying), and lacks the richness, alcohol and overt ripeness of much CdP. What it lacks in garrigue is easily compensated by very pretty fruit flavors. This wasn’t cheap, but definitely comes across as a very classy and elegant wine. It’s like candy for oenophiles. 5-14-17-9: 95/100.
