Score 94-96/100 · Jeb Dunnuck, Oct 2017

100% Grenache that’s aged all in demi-muids, the 2015 Châteauneuf du Pape L'Avenue is similar to the Amiral G., yet is slightly more tight, focused and concentrated. Coming from a tiny strip of vines located right next to Rayas, it offers sensational notes of strawberry jam, kirsch, mulled blackberries, graphite and exotic spices to go with full-bodied richness and depth, as well as fine, sweet tannin. Give bottles 2-3 years of cellaring, count yourself lucky, and drink them over the following 15 years or more.
