Verkostungsnotizen
Robert Parker 95
Every year that I’ve tried the 2016 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Reservee, I’ve liked it better than the year before, so I’ve gone ahead and peremptorily added the + sign to this year’s rating. Black cherries and licorice pick up a hint of chocolate in this full-bodied, rich, velvety wine that should evolve nicely for at least 12-15 years.
Anticipated maturity: 2020-2035
