  Vertical, cool, blue. Tightly knit structure holds everything in place. Power and elegance at the same time. Dark red cherry fruit and garrigue notes in a mineral driven frame. Wonderful. With Niels at La Contadine.

  Stunning, again. Tasted vis a vis the basic neuf, this comes out not as s bigger wine, but rather more intense even more mineral-driven with a very true local feel. There is plenty of ripe Grenache here, this is a grand Bonneau-wine, dark and worthy.

  This is the real McCoy. Old School neuf, vraiment Bonneau, old vine Grenache speaks here, the sweetness of the fruit, the blood of the stones ...

  Lovely, old-school Châteauneuf-du-Pape. It is dark fruited, with marks of garrigue, dark olives and soil. Everything is in balance, fruit, tannins, acidity. Will live on for many years, grand vin in a bottle.

  Grand vin. A nose of dark olives, garrigue, dark cherry fruit, leather, spices. Cool and vertical, with good acidity and soil components, this is vraiment old-school Neuf. Love it!
