Tasting notes
The 1999 Chateauneuf du Pape offers up aromas of iodine, sweet candied licorice, pepper, seaweed, black cherry and plum fruit, and spice box. This singular, distinctive, full-bodied Chateauneuf possesses a firm, moderately tannic finish, yet is accessible with outstanding depth, ripeness, and succulence. It should drink well over the next 14-15 years. Importers: Alain Junguenet, Wines of France, Mountainside, NJ; tel.
