The 2012 ‘Grande Réserve’ Châteauneuf-du-Pape brings bright aromas of cherries and raspberries followed by spices, wild herbs and licorice. The medium body is wrapped in fine tannins, backed with a racy core and finishes up with berries and spices. This could use a bit more time in bottle to flesh out.
