Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Vieilles Vignes 2007
Domaine de la Janasse
1 magnum
"...the 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvée Vieilles Vignes is unquestionably one of the wines of the vintage as well as one of the finest Chateauneuf du Papes ever made. Offering notes of cassis, roasted meats, beef blood and licorice, this heavenly 2007 is full-bodied, hugely concentrated and rich yet shows incredible purity, focus and precision, with no sensation of heaviness or weight. It's still deep purple colored, with no signs of evolution, and it has another two decades of life. Having said that, it's a gorgeous drink today." (100pts Jeb Dunnuck, Wine Advocate #229, Feb 2017)
