Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Pierre André

handsome dark red robe; the nose has depth from within, a really inviting aroma of finely sweet plums, with some cedar, gently perfumed notes around them. It’s a very good start. The palate runs with a stately roll of red stone fruits, lovely engagement thanks to its stylish gras, its spherical shape most appealing. The balance is good. This is STGT Châteauneuf, no make-up added, is a very bonny Grenache-inspired wine, has smoky, tobacco, menthol tones late on. Much harmony here, not sure what else one could demand from it - way to go, Jacqueline!

"Den er generøs. Den har sødmen fra grenache, den har krydderurter fra landet - og fordi den er så ung så har den også en lille smule likør... Jeg har købt en kasse af dem, som ligger og venter... Den ville ikke skuffe ret mange... De får præcis det de havde håbet... Det er et fund på første klasse." Lillelund, JP

Glistening ruby-red. Expansive, spice- and mineral-accented aromas of red fruit preserves, exotic spices, garrigue and candied flowers show superb definition and lift. Silky, broad and alluringly sweet in the mouth, offering concentrated raspberry, boysenberry, spicecake and floral pastille flavors that put on weight with air. In a juicy, generous yet elegant style, with a refreshing jolt of minerality adding focus to the impressively long, youthfully tannic finish. - Josh Raynolds

attractive red robe. The nose has a stylish breadth, a line-up of clear red fruits, all in order, good potential, some pastille element in the fruit. The attack is tasty, flows well with richness on roller skates. This is sumptuous, a real knife and fork wine that comes with very good floral trimmings, elegance. There is wavy gras on the finish. This is mega tasty, and the balance is good. - John Livingstone-Learmonth
