Sunday, June 14, 2020 - Really good. Just a delicious and classic cndp to me. I’m not sure what all the controversy over 2007 was. It has certainly proved to be a fine vintage. My last of a few bottles of this one, and it showed the best. These wines were a bit flabby up front but have evolved nicely. Classic southern Rhône nose that holds on through the palate and finish. Straightforward without being boring. It knows what it is and delivers. Nothing earth shattering but a great bottle of evolved cndp for sure.
