Clos Saint Jean Deus Ex Machina Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2009
...an extroverted, open and insanely perfumed effort that boasts killer blackberry and kirsch-styled fruit to go with layers of spring flowers, exotic spice and graphite. As are all of these efforts, it’s full-bodied, deeply concentrated and textured on the palate, with masses of sweet tannin...evolve gracefully for two decades, but it’s hard to resist right now.

Incredible complexity. A real explosion of savours.

More evolved than the Combe des Fous 09, this needed a bit of air to offload some of its riper notes. A bold, large scale Chateauneuf.

One of the best 2009s. The Maurel brothers are amazing and so is Cambie.

I had a bunch if that and it was supper hot and unbalanced when I had it. Now the Sanctus 09 was great.

Really, just a :)? I've never tasted this bottling before but ordered a case of the 2011... hope I didn't make a mistake.
