Rich on the attack

the 2006 Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes is a blockbuster thats up with the top two to three wines of the vintage

(from extremely stony ground with very little top soil)

There is a really lovely underlying tension to the racy yet plump middle weight flavors that also conclude in a clean and dry finale

Tasted from a bottle from my personal cellar

Benjamin Leroux, Gevrey Chambertin Goulots other_regions_australia Rich on the attackA very ripe nose of plum, earth, violets and plenty of classic Gevrey sauvage character. There is excellent detail to the minerally, delicious and vibrant medium bodied flavors that possess a subtle salinity on the clean, balanced and impressively persistent finish. (90 92) 2021+
