Score 83/100 · Drink 2003-2008, Robert Parker, Jan 2003
From a difficult vintage in Chateauneuf du Pape (it probably had as many problems as 2002), the medium-bodied, pleasant 1984 reveals pepper, spice, and vegetal characteristics along with sweet currant and cherry fruit. It will last another 4-5 years. Importer: Alain Junguenet, Wines of France, Mountainside, NJ; tel. (908) 654-6173
