The 2011 Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes comes from 85 to 90-year-old vines and is a blend of 95% Grenache and 5% Mourvedre. One of the most successful efforts from the 2011 vintage, it is full-bodied and rich revealing classic notes of balsam wood, garrigue, lavender, licorice, kirsch and black currants. This attractive, elegant, supple effort should drink nicely for a decade. Score - 90-93+. (Robert Parker Jr., erobertparker.com, Oct. 2012)
