93 Pts Wine Spectator

"Shows the mix of both raisin and damson plum fruit that is the hallmark of the vintage, but this has better density and even more ripeness than most, with linzer torte, blackberry and sweet spice notes filling in the core and ample grip holding sway on the finish. Impressive for the vintage. Best from 2014 through 2027. 1,900 cases made." Reviewed 2012

"Hitting 15% natural alcohol, the 2008 Chateauneuf du Pape is a superb wine in the vintage and possesses a medium-bodied, elegant and balanced feel, with pretty pepper, darker cherries, licorice and spring flower-like aromas and flavors. Burgundian in style, with more minerality and juicy berry fruit coming out with air, it should continue to drink nicely through 2024.

"One of my favorite producers, Vieille Julienne is run by the brilliant Jean-Paul Daumen. Coming all from a cool, mostly sandy terroir located in the northern part of the appellation, these traditionally made wines possess singular characters that have both richness and depth on the palate, as well as notable elegance and freshness. They epitomize this tiny terroir and are more Vieille Julienne than they are Chateauneuf du Pape. For this tasting, we focused on his traditional Chateauneuf (which is now broken up into two cuvees, the Trois Sources and the Hauts Lieux) and his Reserve bottling, which is produced only when this tiny plot of vines offers something unique to say. Looking first at Jean-Paulâs traditional Chateauneuf (made up until 2009), it is always a rough blend of close to 90% Grenache, with smaller components of Syrah, Mourvedre, Counoise and Cinsault. Completely destemmed, itâs aged in older foudre and never sees any new wood. While it comes from a cooler terroir in the northern part of the appellation (and Jean-Paul favors harvesting on the earlier side), it never lacks for richness and is a concentrated, structured effort that benefits from cellar time. Moving to the Reserve bottling, this cuvee comes from a single plot of 100+-year-old vines, planted in what looks like pure beach sand. Itâs also slightly more Grenache dominated than the classic cuvee, with the blend containing 90-95% Grenache and the balance Cinsault and Syrah. It too is completely destemmed and aged all in older foudres. First made in 1994, itâs only produced when Jean-Paul feels that the plot has something special to say." Reviewed August 2014

Description:

"In 1905, Jean-Paul Daumen's ancestors purchased the property and sold solely to negociants, while bottling for family and friends. It wasn't until the 1960's that Jean-Paul's father started bottling with greater intent, thereby providing his son with the seminal knowledge that it took for him to develop his award winning wines." - Importer
