After a timid opening it settles down with attractive mulberry

Richard Geoffroy's push for additional ripeness working well with the late-maturing

but this is one example where the younger generation is building on past success by taking things to an entirely new level

A completely different aromatic profile is present here with its fresh and cooler dark berry fruit scents that are liberally sprinkled with notes of wild flower and the sauvage

Give this 5-8 years of time before popping a cork and enjoy it for the next 20 years after that

Beaucastel, Chateauneuf Du Pape other_regions After a timid opening itTime has been kind to this wine, as it has really come on strong with bottle age. Crisp, classic and fresh, with a kirsch, spice and herbed, tannic profile. Classic, with loads of bright, clean red fruits, age it a few more years for additional nuance, or pop a cork if you prefer more of a classic, bite.
