“It’s that way... If that’s where you want to go.”—Château de Châteauneuf, Côte-d'Or, Burgundy, France 2016

2004 Domaine de la Janasse Châteauneuf-du-Pape Vieilles Vignes is as good as you you think it would be. Pure black cherry, tar, licorice and dried herbs. Needs quite a bit of air at age 14, so no need to rush on this one. Plush texture and long finish. Really a pleasure to drink. #vin #wine #winesofinstagram #redwine #vinrouge #france #rhone #southernrhone #rhonedusud #chateauneuf #chateauneufdupape #janasse #domainedelajanasse #vieillesvignes #2004

2004 Domaine Grand Veneur Châteauneuf-du-Pape Les Origines is a terrific CdP. Very traditional dark cherry liqueur, dried herbs and black licorice. Feels very fruit forward and loaded with truffle and earth which is a byproduct of the large Mourvedre component. This has massive palate presence and a strong finish and accordingly, needs to be paired with very flavorful foods like grilled lamb or beef. Still could have used several years of aging, but this was my last bottle. Delicious stuff for sure. #wine #winesofinstagram #vin #france #rhone #rhonesud #redwine #vinrouge #chateauneuf #chateauneufdupape #2004 #alainjaume #domainegrandveneur #grandveneur #lesorigines #grenache #syrah #mourvedre

2004 Roger Sabon Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée Prestige is as people say "the good stuff". Raspberry and plum with black cherry in terms of fruit. Provencal herbs, pastille and earthiness on the palate, too. Finishes very strong and maintains plenty of freshness and balance throughout. I actually slightly prefer this over the Grand Veneur from last night, if for no other reason that this shows more savory and makes for a slightly better companion to a roasted chicken. #france #wine #winesofinstagram #vinrouge #redwine #rhone #rhonesud #southernrhone #cdp #chateauneuf #chateauneufdupape #syrah #grenache #mourvedre #vin

2004 Domaine de Marcoux Châteauneuf-du-Pape is the kind of CdP I love. It is all raspberry, licorice and dried herbs. It has fantastic length on the midpalate and finish, amazing freshness and a total balance, screaming with elegance and finesse. Even though this is from a less heralded vintage, I find this extremely seductive and fun to drink. The fact that this is mostly old vine Grenache defines this wine. A+ effort. #wine #vin #france #redwine #vinrouge #rhonesud #rhone #chateauneuf #chateauneufdupape #grenache #syrah #mourvedre #cinsault #marcoux #2004 #domainedemarcoux
