The 2012 Les Safres Châteauneuf-du-Pape is a wonderful showing in 2012. This classy effort delivers a gorgeous mix of dark cherries and raspberries woven together by licorice and wet stones, white pepper and herbs de Provence. This is nicely balanced and very well structured with a beautiful velvety texture that stays firm through the finish. Even at this young age this is already showing some nice characteristics, but will benefit from another few years of bottle age. (Best 2016-2026) - January, 2015 (JD)
