The 100% Grenache cuvee, the 2004 Chateauneuf du Pape a la Gloire de Mon Grandpere is a sexy wine, opulent, with loads of kirsch liqueur notes, some licorice, and spice box , but a soft, velvety texture and plenty of glycerin and body. There is little tannin in evidence, and thus I would opt for drinking this wine in its first 6-7 years of life. This superb estate never misses a beat with its wines, which are all reasonably drinkable at a young age, normally exhibit terrific Provencal typicity, and have uncommon aging potential. I still have some soft years like 1983 and 1985 in my cellar that are holding up beautifully.Importers: Alain Junguenet, Wines of France, Mountainside, NJ; tel.
