Domaine Charvin Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 2000

$79

The glories at this estate are unquestionably their Chateauneuf du Papes...A deep ruby/purple color is accompanied by a sweet nose of creme de cassis, kirsch liqueur, licorice, pepper, and underbrush. Voluptuously-textured and exceptionally long (the finish lasts 45+ seconds), with silky tannin, low acidity, and full body... it offers a gorgeous, seductive mouthful of old vine Chateauneuf du Pape...Readers who believe Chateauneuf du Pape can not be a wine of finesse and elegance should taste Charvin!

More mature than the Boisrenard, I will give the Charvin the slight edge for its charming rusticity and earthy appeal

Scarlet tawny, mostly opaque. Great aged Grenache nose. Notes of plums, herbs de Provence, white pepper, a little raspberry and some dark soil. Rich and impactful in the mouth. Tannins are integrated, yielding a luscious finish. Top notch CdP!

Tawny color. Great herbal nose. Notes of red fruit, herbs de Provence, kirsch, some brown spice and a little sour cherry. Nicely balanced in the mouth. In a great drinking window, I don’t thing this gets any better with more age.
