One hour decant. Black and red fruits, garrigue. Full bodied, balanced, smooth and silky. Great mouthfeel, fine tannins, seamless with a long finish. Some distractions per guests but this is possibly the best Chateauneuf-du-Papes I've consumed. Gorgeous wine.

Pnp. Lemon, peach and melon. Medium bodied and creamy with fresh acidity. I haven't been drinking Sauvignon Blanc last few years. I got turned off after a trip to NZ where I sampled too many grassy SBs. Paired well with a shrimp gnocchi dish. Enjoyed this wine.
