Trip to France; 10/13/2008-10/24/2008 (Burgundy, Rhone Valley (Chateauneuf-du-Pape), Paris): Nose not too expressive, but showing some cherry, licorice, and mushrooms. Palate is smooth without some of the sharp acidity of the others. Some darker fruit on the palate, firm fine tannins. medium to long finish with the fruit persisting and giving way to slate/mineral finish. Young, but still excellent.
