Deep crimson, Big, bloody. fully evolved on the nose. Warm and spicy. Slightly pinched on the finish which lets it down a little. (JR)

The 2001 Chateauneuf du Pape’s dark ruby/plum color is accompanied by delicious, sexy aromas of ground pepper, kirsch liqueur, roasted peanuts, and lavender. Full-bodied, broad, and expansive, it is a succulent, hedonistic fruit bomb to enjoy over the next 7-8 years. Importer: Parliament Importing Co., Atlantic City, NJ; tel. (609) 348-1100
