2021 Château de La Greffiere Saint-Amour Parcimonie

The color is somewhat blueish. The wine is not overly fruity, and it is having quite a pungently and tightly acidic character. However, the aroma and flavor palette is intensive and stylish, providing nice notes of cranberry, lingonberry, crowberry and earth. It is hard to say, how this wine would evolve in the coming years.

2010 Domaine du Pégau Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Réservée

This full-bodied wine was still fruity, but it was also having a nicely tannic structure. The wine was providing very pleasant notes of ripe dark fruits and herbs, but even the funky barnyard notes were present. In my opinion, this wine is now very enjoyable and probably on its peak.

2010 Domaine de la Janasse Châteauneuf-du-Pape Vieilles Vignes

This full-bodied and massive wine is in a great and balanced phase at the moment: the lush fruitiness is still there, but the tannins have softened and integrated. The taste is very rich, deep and captivating, providing alluring notes of ripe blackberries, blueberries, plums, tar and herbs. As a whole, the wine is really enjoyable now. I am not sure, if it will still get better; the answer likely depends on how mature Rhône wines you just prefer to drink.
