Score 88/100 · Robert Parker
A candidate for the wine of the vintage in 2002 is Clos des Papes’ 2002 Chateauneuf du Pape. A severe selection resulted in a medium-bodied, Burgundian-styled red possessing sweet and sour cherry, pomegranate, spice box, and balsam wood characteristics. Natural alcohol of 13.8% gives the wine body. Light tannin is noticeable in the spicy finish. This 2002 should drink well for 7-8 years. Feb 2004, www.robertparker.com
