Andre Brunel, Chateauneuf du Pape Cailloux Rouge Vintage:2010 This is also most impressiveThe 2009 Chateauneuf du Pape is a blockbuster. Deep ruby colored and a blend of 70% Grenache, 20% Mourvedre and the rest other permitted varieties, it offers up a big, sweet bouquet of kirsch, blackberries, ground herbs, pepper and licorice. Full bodied, textured and layered, it has terrific fruit intensity, no hard edges and a great finish. Drink this hedonistic beauty anytime over the coming decade or more.
