cranberry and a touch of red cherry)-a joyful and perhaps less serious nose

Telmo Rodriguez, As Caborcas other_regions_italy The 2007 Chateauneuf du PapeThe nuanced, scented complexity is so impressive. It makes me think of a exceptional bojo with a touch of North Rhone. Grilled herbs and dried meat aromas plus expressive mineral, berry, sauerkraut and dried lychee notes. Such intensity on the palate, but its also ethereal, with lots of mossy berries and pepper dancing through the palate. Extremely long yet delicate and vulnerable. Only 1,950 bottles made. Drink or hold.
