Clos Saint Jean Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2009

$32.99

A spectacular showing, the 2009 Chateauneuf du Pape was firing on all cylinders at this tasting. As sexy and seamless as they come, with blackberry liqueur, kirsch, creamy licorice, orange peel and dried flower-like aromas and flavors, it hits the palate with a full-bodied, up-front, decadent style that just begs to be drunk. Drink this puppy while you wait on the 2010. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

Yum! Sandy, loamy soil and old vines in the valley floor of Ch de P create opulent fruit - stewed plum to be precise. But C. St. Jean has balance as well. Traces of black licorice and herbs. Really peaking right now. Perfect with tenderloin.

Opened, immediate taste is very tannic. After 3 hrs, much more mellow, with blue fruits becoming pronounced. Smoothed out nicely, quite good.

I really like Grenache based wine, and this delivers in spades. My favorite at this price point.

Good CDP, easy drinking, good with food or on its own.
