Henri Bonneau, Chateauneuf Du Pape Reserve Celestins Size:12x750ml

Henri Bonneau, Chateauneuf Du Pape Reserve Celestins Size:12x750mlMedium bodied and quite forward for Bonneau Celestins, the wine is perhaps more interesting on the nose with its blast of garrigue, kirsch and thyme scented perfume. Soft, open and fruity, with a hint of black pepper in the cherry centric, earthy finish, this is already in its prime time drinking window. This is a nice Chateauneuf, but not a great vintage for Celestins.

cherry preserve

primary and very young

Just dont tell anyone how good this La Tour Blanche is

punch and intensity on the rustic and ever-so-slightly warm finish

and for all of the botrytization in effect

with tons of pure texture from the 28% still Pinot in the blend

medicinal herb and crushed mineral

berry liqueur and mineral notes

The 2009 Malartic-Lagravière comprises a blend of 59% Cabernet Sauvignon

(from vines planted in 1955)

Here the sense of delicacy is nearly weightless

structured Cristal layered with considerable fruit
