This wine is composed of a selection the Maret family makes from their holdings in one of the great sites in all of Chateauneuf du Pape, the lieux-dit known as La Crau. The 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Les Hautes Brusquieres Cuvee Speciale is a blend of 60% Grenache and 40% Syrah...This fabulous, inky/ruby/purple-tinged wine offers up sweet, jammy aromas of black raspberries, licorice, truffles, underbrush, and Provencal herbs. It is the deepest colored of these four wines, and is also profoundly rich and layered, with sweet tannins as well as refreshing vibrancy and acidity... Robert Parker

The Syrah really shows. Dark and concentrated. 1 hr decanted and starts to open with smokey gamey fig flavors

Drank the next bottle in October 2018. We may give this one 93 points. It is a delicious wine, fully mature and really enjoyable. But it is just missing something that would make us give it 95 points, or so.
