Jeb Dunnuck (95-97)The smaller production 2019 Châteauneuf Du Pape Val De Dieu is close to 60% Grenache blended with 30% Syrah and 12% Mourvèdre. This is always the most modern styled cuvée from this great estate, and it’s aged in 70% demi-muids and 30% new barrels. Its deep purple color is followed by a gorgeous bouquet of cassis and black raspberry fruits intermixed with notes of new leather, graphite, spice, and peppery garrigue. Its oak is beautifully integrated, it’s full-bodied, has a terrific mid-palate, and a great, great finish. It’s probably not for the staunch traditionalist out there but is just a brilliant Châteauneuf du Pape in the making. It’s going to evolve for 15+ years. |

Jeb Dunnuck (96)The 2020 Châteauneuf Du Pape Les Vieilles Roussannes is also terrific, with a deep, rich, concentrated style that carries classic Roussanne apple and stone fruits as well as honeyed toast, spice, and subtle floral nuances. Medium to full-bodied, concentrated, and fabulously well-balanced, it's going to drink well for 4-5 years, then probably shut down, only to re-emerge in another decade with a more mineral, honeyed, nutty, complex profile. |

Jeb Dunnuck (96)More medium gold-hued, the 2022 Châteauneuf Du Pape Les Vieilles Roussanne packs some muscle with its orange blossom, toasted bread, honeyed melon, and spicy aromas and flavors. It's rich, medium to full-bodied, has a killer texture, and fabulous length. It should have 4-5 years of prime drinking, if not longer. This is all Roussanne that spent 9 months in 50% new French oak. |

Vinous (93)Glass-staining purple. Exotically perfumed bouquet of dark berries, flowers and herbs, along with a note of olive tapenade. Very rich, palate-coating cassis and mulberry flavors are complemented by smoky garrigue and dark chocolate, with supple tannins adding support. An emphatically rich wine that stops just this side of over the top, finishing with a strong jolt of smoky Indian spices. This is already drinking well. |

Full-bodied, powerful and ripe, with a still youthful profile, this beauty won’t hit full maturity for another 3-4 years, and should hold for a decade or more after that. |

Verzier Chante Perdrix Connivence 2016 is a quintessential expression of the Northern Rhône, manifesting richness and elegance. Made by maverick vigneron, David Verzier, this Syrah shines with a deep ruby colour, and an exquisite nose redolent of native garrigue, blackcurrant, and black olive tapenade. Crafted from manually-harvested grapes, it's fermented in concrete tanks before twelve months of maturation in old, large format oak barrels. This gentle handling preserves the purity of fruit. Situated on the steep, ancient terraces of Verliers, Verzier's 5 hectare parcel comprises vineyard land of diverse mineral-rich schist and granite soils. The vintage 2016 stands out for its superb humidity and mild temperatures, culminating in a wine distinctive for its balance and length. Verzier Chante Perdrix Connivence 2016 suits pairing with robust, hearty dishes like braised short ribs or roasted lamb. Experience the sophisticated tastes and intricacies of this exceptionally well crafted, limited production gem from Northern Rhône. |

Wine Advocate (91)The elegant 2000 Vieux Telegraphe La Crau possesses 14.8% alcohol, along with a deep ruby/purple color, charming, rich, fruitiness, and firm tannin in the finish. With loads of freshness, copious quantities of pepper, seaweed, and black fruit characteristics, and a distinctive minerality, this full-bodied, sweet 2000 requires 2-3 years of cellaring; it should age well for 15-16 years. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2018. |

Wine Advocate (95)One of the most age-worthy cuvees in the appellation, Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe’s 2005 Châteauneuf du Pape was gorgeous on this occasion, showing classic iodine, seaweed and peppery herbs intermixed with layers of sweet currant, plum and blackberry fruits. Full-bodied, powerful and ripe, with a still youthful profile, this beauty won’t hit full maturity for another 3-4 years, and should hold for a decade or more after that. |

Wine Advocate (94)A super showing for this wine, the 2009 Chateauneuf du Pape is meaty and intense, with black olives and black cherries equally sharing the spotlight. Full-bodied, rich and velvety, with a long finish, it may be just a bit coarse in texture, but it delivers happiness in the glass. Drink now or hold; it should drink well for at least another decade. |

Vinous (93)(65% grenache, 15% syrah and 15% mourvedre): Bright ruby-red. Black raspberry, cherry compote, potpourri and Asian spices on the highly perfumed nose. Juicy red and dark berry flavors stain the palate, showing terrific clarity and spicy lift. The spicy quality comes back strong on the finish, which is framed by silky, harmonious tannins. In a graceful, almost weightless style, with zero excess fat but noteworthy flavor intensity. I underestimated this wine last year. |
