Domaine de Beaurenard Boisrenard Châteauneuf-du-Pape Rouge 2001
Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Southern Rhone, Rhone Valley, FranceThe ultimate power Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Look for a super intense, black raspberry jam and blueberry nose with an intense spicy garrigue character underneath. Smoke and crushed spice flavours on the palate with ripe intense rich fruit flavours and a smoky licorice fruit aftertaste. A must buy even it needs five to eight years to really star, still it's incredibly appealing now for those who can't wait.
