2007 Roger Sabon Chateauneuf-du-Pape Prestige Magnum

Tasting Note:

The brilliant 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Prestige (60% Grenache 15% Syrah 10% Mourvedre and the balance almost every other authorized red grape of the appellation) is produced from parcels that average 90 years of age or older. It reveals the essence of Provence in its dense plum/purple color and powerful aromatics of sweet creme de cassis black cherries licorice lavender pepper and incense. The wine possesses terrific depth a blockbuster opulent multilayered texture and a finish that lasts nearly 50 seconds. This sensational Chateauneuf du Pape should drink well for 15-20 years.
