點擊次數：11880

A limited production offering (400+ cases), the 2000 Chateauneuf du Pape Les Choregies is the finest wine to emerge from this estate in 30 years. Its dense ruby/purple color is accompanied by pure black raspberry, cherry, and cassis notes intertwined with licorice, truffles, and pepper. There is great purity, full body, sweet tannin, and a voluptuous mouthfeel with a 45 second finish. This is truly stunning stuff from one of Chateauneuf du Pape's historically great domaines that appears to be serious about resurrecting its once lofty reputation.

More extracted and oakier than Clos de L’Oratoire’s regular cuvee, this is a chunky, corpu ent wine that displays plenty of cedary oak layered over prunes and black cherries. Moderately tannic, and worth holding to a few years to see if I’ve underestimated it’s potential.——J.C.(3/1/2004)—— 87
