2010 | Domaine du Grand Tinel | Chateauneuf-du-Pape

Dark ruby. Red fruit and spice aromas are slow to unfold, picking up spiciness with aeration. Ripe and concentrated, offering chewy raspberry and bitter cherry flavors and a touch of licorice. Finishes with good power and firm but fine-grained tannins.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: The delicious, open-knit 2010 Chateauneuf du Pape (80% Grenache, 18% Syrah and 2% Mourvedre) exhibits sexy kirsch liqueur notes intermixed with notions of roasted Provencal herbs, pepper, smoked meats and forest floor. It is a full-bodied, fat, fleshy Chateauneuf with a serious alcoholic punch.

• Wine Spectator: Ripe, polished and accessible now, with a delicious core of plum, blackberry and boysenberry stitched with sweet spice, red licorice and toasted vanilla bean notes. The long finish lets the sweet fruit drip without being jammy, thanks to a graphite edge.

Producer Information

The Domaine du Grand Tinel is a large estate of 55 hectares of Chateauneuf du Pape vineyard. The estate is owned by Eli Jeune and family, based in the town of Chateauneuf du Pape. The vineyards are dominated by the rolled pebbles (locally known as `Galets`) of the southern Rhone floodplain. These were deposited when the Rhone was a torrent, bringing fragment of rock down from the Alps. The estate makes traditional wine, rich and robust with the aromas of Provencal herbs.
