Tasting notes
An offering for long-term aging is the Cuvee des Generations. This full-throttle Chateauneuf du Pape, made in a modern barrique-aged style, retains plenty of the typicity of old vine Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvedre. Truly great stuff, the 2000 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee des Generations exhibits notes of licorice, creme de cassis, vanilla, and espresso. Closed, but powerful and concentrated, it reveals similar flavors of cassis liqueur intermixed with kirsch, truffles, camphor, and spice box. A wine of formidable intensity and tannin, it will be drinkable between 2007-2025. Importer: Bercut-Vandervoort, 211 South Hill Dr, Brisbane, CA 94005 Ph: (415) 562-1132; Fax: (415) 562-1142
