2017 Domaine Grand Veneur Chateauneuf du Pape Rouge Les Origines - 95 pts & Cellar Selection - WE

wine enthusiast 95 pts

"In contrast to the sun-drenched red fruit of this producer's other special cuvée, the Vieilles Vignes, Les Origines is the darker, more sultry sibling. Flavors of crème de cassis and spiced black plums are densely concentrated, almost languorous in mouthfeel, but edged by lifting tones of crushed earth and smoky minerals. It's still a bit closed in character but should open from 2022 and improve further well through 2030. - ANNA LEE C. IIJIMA"
