Domaine Pierre Usseglio & Fils Cuvée De Mon Aïeul Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2003
... Usseglio's 2003 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee de Mon Aieul is a blockbuster and one of the true stars of this vintage... this massive, voluptuous effort is almost overflowing with notes of ground herbs, chocolate dusted meats, black fruits and licorice...beautiful purity and freshness, sweet tannin, and a great finish...utterly hedonistic beauty... eRobertParker.com

Dark ruby with a hint of brownish red. High pitched nose offering ripe plums, herbs, and a sort of medicinal type thing. Sweet fruit and heat with not so much structure in the mouth. Over the top wine, representative of the vintage's hot weather. Not my style of CdP.

Wow. Stewed strawberries, licorice, dried herbs and some smoked meats. What an incredible wine. From Magnum

Over the hill. I’m not a huge CDP fan, but this was overwhelmed with prunes and plums, and had an unattractive brownish hue to it. Way too sweet and somewhat thin. Not undrinkable, but did pour 1/3 of the bottle out.

A real treat! Just what you want from a CdP. Smoked meats, with licorice on the finish. Beautiful!
