The 2012 Châteauneuf-du-Pape ‘Reserve’ 2012 is a tremendous showing. This dark, concentrated and powerful wine gushes with sweetly ripened blackberries and dark plums followed by cherry cobbler, coffee, tobacco, exotic spices and crushed floral. It is Impressive for its remarkable depth, richness and beautiful plush texture. The finish is comes in layers, leaving behind a generous coating of ripe dark fruits to linger on. This will be approachable upon release but also has the potential to last well over a decade. (Best 2015-2029) - November, 2014 (JD)
