"Another perfect wine from this brilliant estate is the 2016 Châteauneuf-du-Pape, which matches the otherworldly 2007. A classic blend of 60% Grenache, 30% Mourvèdre and 10% Syrah brought up all in old foudre, this beauty's deep purple color is followed by a mammoth bouquet of kirsch liqueur, black currants, blueberries, Asian spices, and garrigue. Full-bodied, concentrated, and powerful, it nevertheless is as graceful as a ballerina on the palate and has ultra-fine tannins, a silky, seamless texture, and a finish that just won't quit. Hats off to vigneron Paul-Vincent Avril!"

"Nice sense of freshness and detail on the nose, although it still needs some time to fully develop and open up, but this is promising and very classic. Great finesse on the palate, it's voluminous but focused, with great drive and intensity. Good acidity, still with a fair whack of powdery tannin, finishing very long. Will be exceptional when it's ready. The tannic finesse here really is divine, all is in great balance. Superb."
