Cros de la Mure, Chateauneuf Du Pape

Cros de la Mure, Chateauneuf Du PapeSaturated ruby. Exotically perfumed scents of blueberry, mulberry, fruitcake and incense. Open knit dark berry compote flavors provide impressive palate coverage, with velvety tannins providing shape. Expands with air and picks up notes of candied licorice and mocha that carry through a very long, spicy, warm finish. This is drinking well right now especially if you like powerful, superrich Chateauneuf. Josh Raynolds
