96 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Outer quote mark The dense ruby/purple-colored, full-bodied 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Cotes Capelan is an outrageously rich, complex wine exhibiting beautiful creme de cassis, kirsch, licorice, forest floor, and spring flower-like aromas. It is fresh, voluptuous, and opulent in the mouth, but the fresh acids and vibrancy give it exceptional precision as well as a refreshing style despite its weight, richness, and length. This is a superb, young Chateauneuf du Pape from an up-and-coming star of the appellation. (RP) (Oct/2009)

Outer quote mark The 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Cotes Capelan is the top wine from winemaker Stephane Vedeau and is mostly Grenache from a parcel named 'Côtes Capelan'. This sexy, opulent and incredibly perfumed beauty gives up loads of kirsch, incense, licorice and lavender aromas and flavors. It’s unquestionably a big wine, yet it’s remarkable fresh and lively, with good acids, and seamless texture, loads of fruit and a clean finish. It needs an hour in the decanter to show at its best, and easily has another decade of prime drinking. (Jul/2017)
