Clos du Mont-Olivet Châteauneauf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2007
The family estate of Clos du Mont-Olivet is the collector’s choice for traditional, aromatic and age-worthy Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Mont-Olivet’s some 15 vineyard parcels are found mostly in the northern and eastern part of the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation (Côtes du Rhône parcels are north of Orange), with a patchwork of soils—galets roulés, sand and clay—typical to the region.

2007v. Opened 12/2018. Lots of sweet, sunripe fruit: strawberry preserves, raspberries, a little blackberry. Tannins still had a little grip when first opened. The body is very notable: it's got some syrupy viscosity without feeling heavy. At 15%, the booze is noticeable but not way out of balance. Overall it's not bad but it's not lacking those complex notes of garrigue or black olives that you sometimes get w CdP.
