Robert Parker

“A new non-vintage Châteauneuf-du-Pape made from the best barrels of the Anonyme cuvée from 2007 (43%), 2009 (21%), and 2010 (36%). The Châteauneuf-du-Pape La Réserve is hedonistic and decadent, offering an opulent nose of blackberries, raspberries, and gingerbread, along with notes of licorice and crushed flowers. Beautifully round, it boasts superb texture and retains remarkable freshness and great purity. This incredible, complex wine should age well for 15 years or more. ” (Wine Advocate 2014 – Robert Parker)
