Lovely depth and intensity

Best from 2024 through 2039

It just rushes up from the glass to greet your senses and utterly seduce them with its charms

impressive more than giving at the moment

anise and a whiff of balsamic into a meld of graceful poise

2010 Paul Avril Clos des Papes Chateauneuf-du-Pape Italian Lovely depth and intensity"Full bodied, packed and stuffed with sweet, spicy berries, red fruits and floral notes. The wine is sweet, concentrated and dense. There is a lot of volume and depth in this wine. At 16% alcohol ,there is no sensation of heat at any point in the experience. I could be short changing this wine on the 98 Pt score, it's sublime and really leaves a lasting impression. A few years in the bottle should add a lot to this elixir." 98 100, Jeff Leve, The Wine
