Chateau/Producer: | Patrick Lesec | Wine Name: | Chateauneuf du Pape Rubis | Country: | France | State: | Rhone | AOC: | Chateauneuf du Pape | Region: | Chateauneuf du Pape, La Crau | Wine Score: | 92 | Notes: | The color is a pretty shade of ruby, only slightly lighter at the edges, and has very long, strong legs. There is a strong nose of red fruits--raspberry, plums, cherry, with maybe a hint of chocolate. The wine has a nice balance, with a very long, pleasant finish. There are strong fruit flavors of raspberry and cherry, with a good balance of acids and tannin. It may be a little heavy on the alcohol, but overall this was a very tasty CDP. | Tasting Date: | 2005-01-09 | Varietal: | 95% Grenache, 5% Syrah | Price US$: | 33.00 | Source: | Served by a friend |
