Bottled just two weeks before I tasted it, the 2021 Chateauneuf du Pape La Reine des Bois was nevertheless impressive, showcasing lovely cherry and berry fruit. Medium to full-bodied, it was quite tart and edgy, with rather drying tannins (possibly related to its recent bottling), but it showed ample concentration and length. Country: France Region:…

#74 in Top 100 Cellar Selections, 2025. Energetic and generous, the nose offers beautiful pear and peach fruit with light salinity and alluring floral notes—signature traits of these wines.

My favorite vintage of this cuvee to date and a knockout wine that is up there with the best of the vintage, the 2010 Domaine de la Solitude (Lançon Père et Fils) Châteauneuf-du-Pape Réserve Secrète is a blend of 70% Grenache and 30% Syrah that has all of the Syrah and a small portion of…
Domaine de la Solitude turned in a top performance with its 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape. It shows hints of toasted almond or marzipan on the nose, ripe cherries and hints of stone fruit, and while it’s richly tannic, the tannins are ripe and velvety. It should drink well for 15+ years. Country: France Region: Rhone…
Extremely perfumed, graceful and silky, this is an extremely sensual and beautifully balanced expression of grenache. Full-bodied, but as light as air. I love the floral and creme de cassis aromas. Super-long finish. A grenache-based cuvee, one-third of which was matured in foudre, one-third in new oak and one-third in concrete tanks. From biodynamically grown…
Intense, featuring a hefty core of dark currant, fig and blackberry confiture flavors, meshed with bittersweet cocoa, smoldering tobacco and warm earth notes.

The awesome 2012 Châteauneuf du Pape Reserve is at the top of the heap in the vintage, and is world-class stuff.

Bright ruby. Vibrant, spice-accented aromas of raspberry and cherry liqueur, incense and pungent flowers are accompanied by a smoky mineral nuance that builds in the glass.
