A brilliant wine in a superb vintage, the 2010 Chateauneuf du Pape checks in as a blend of 50% Grenache, 30% Mourvedre, 10% Syrah and 10% Cinsault that comes mostly from the famed La Crau lieu dit (small part from Valori). Seeing 24 months in barrel, itโ€™s a deep, concentrated and meaty effort that oozes notions of black fruits, licorice, lavender and mulled spices on both the nose and palate. Dense, chewy and full-bodied, it is still backwards and tight, with some upside. Give it another year or two and enjoy over the following decade. Drink 2015-2025.

While I was able to taste through the full lineup of Louis Barruolโ€™s wines, Iโ€™ll just report here on his Chateauneuf, as his Gigondas (which are superb!) and Cotes du Rhones will be covered in a subsequent report due out at the end of this year. Rest assured, this estate is firing on all cylinders.
