Vin buvable mais déséquilibré. très acide à l'ouverture, il bascule dans un excès d'alcool et devient lourd. En plus, le bouchon très sec est tombé en miette à l'ouverture. Je préfère supposer qu'il y a un problème avec cette bouteille.

Brought to drink at Oinoscent during afternoon service. The wine was decanted for an hour. The wine shows fully evolved colour. The wine shows medium intensity, evolved character, sweet spices, sweet notes overall, oaky, earthy, forrest floor, savoury grilled meat notes and dried red cherries. The wine follows the same pattern in the palate, toast, gamey, savoury, dried red fruits, light oak, alcohol heat (15%), almost dissolved tannins, oregano, coffee beans and chocolate flavoured decadent long finish. At its peak and of outstanding quality. A great example of mature Chateauneuf du Pape

Nice nose of soy sauce, sweet roasted cherries.. Tobacco leaves, nice light red ripe cherries, very nice fresh acidity.

Seems to be slightly on the downside of its peak. Drank best with no decant.

Dried fruits (figs and dates), loam, hoisin, umami, and tobacco. Interesting, near or at peak, drink soon.
