"This shows a solid core of dark fig and boysenberry fruit, but it's open-knit, with incense, mesquite and braised beef hints checking in on the back end. Drink now through 2018. 830 cases made." -90 points Wine Spectator

The regular red Chateauneuf du Pape is made from 70% Grenache, 10% Syrah, 10% Mourvedre, and a 10% mix of Cinsault, Counoise, and Muscardin.

It starts with whole bunch fermentation and the must is in the tank for about a 3 week fermentation on the skins. During alcoholic fermentation, the temperature is kept around 25-28 degrees Celsius. The wine is pressed before malolactic fermentation, at which time it is put into barriques. The wine is aged for 12-14 months in oak barrels." -Winery; translated by KM
