Outgoing-ly spicy, this full of cherries Chateauneuf is a great entry level expression of sandy soils from the eastern part of the appellation. Mostly made out of 100+ years old vines, this beauty would really take advantage of more concentration as I feel there is much potential in this land. 90 points

Very typical, if not the most exciting CdP of the year. Blackberry, blueberry and further blue fruits along with cooked fruit and compote. Perfectly Fine CdP.

(Domaine La Consonnière Châteauneuf-du-Pape) Medium dark ruby color; very appealing, lifted, floral, ripe raspberry, ripe cherry nose; silky textured, tasty, ripe cherry, ripe raspberry, tart berry, light garrigue palate; ready now and should go 8-10 years; medium-plus finish (100% Grenache, all grown on sandy soils; delightful CdP in a lighter style)

Fennel and garrigue bring you to a medium bodied, light, open styled cherry filled wine that needs to be consumed young.
