Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Les Cailloux, Cuvée Centenaire--Vintage 1998
Rhône. Domaine-bottled: Brunel
Tasting note: The 1998 Cuvee Centenaire is an awesome Chateauneuf du Pape. Made from extremely old vines, this is the essence of both Chateauneuf du Pape and the Grenache grape. The wine boasts a deep ruby/purple color as well as an extraordinary bouquet of melted, jammy black cherry, raspberry, and currant fruit mixed with pepper and spice box. In the mouth, it is rich, full-bodied, and unctuously-textured, with extraordinary purity, and laser-like definition for a wine of such massive concentration and depth. The finish lasts for nearly a minute. This spectacular, youthful, amazingly accessible offering is a tour de force in winemaking, and a tribute to just how great Chateauneuf du Pape can be. Anticipated maturity: now-2025. 100 points. Robert Parker, eRobertParker.com #E2003, January 2003
