Description

The CNDP 2010 Mont Redon has an intense inky colour with violet reflections. The highly aromatic nose evidences a remarkable maturity of grapes with black fruit character combined to noble vanilla and toasted notes. The dense but refined mid palate shows great depth and balance along with very well integrated oak that finishes with ripe black cherry and blueberry aromas.

Reviews:
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
An exceptionally strong effort, the 2010 Chateauneuf du Pape should eclipse the quality, longevity and overall character of the 2009. Its dense ruby/purple hue is followed by notes of cassis, kirsch, lavender, pepper and earth. Deep, full-bodied, textured, pure and long with sweet tannins as well as admirable focus and delineation, it will age gracefully for 15 or more years.
Range: 91-93

Wine Spectator
Solid, with dark plum, currant paste and steeped cherry notes lined with fruit cake, anise and ganache accents. Offers a fleshy feel through the finish.

Condition

good level and label

Reviews

Also tasted out of barrel, the 2012 Chateauneuf du Pape Mont Redon is a blend of 60% Grenache, 30% Syrah, 8% Mourvedre and a splash of Cinsault. Spending 12 months in equal parts stainless steel and barrels, it offers up a modern profile with plenty of cassis, licorice and hints of vanilla all emerging from the glass. Nicely concentrated, with sweet tannin and solid length on the finish, it has outstanding potential and should have around a decade of longevity.

Presenting a solid lineup of wines, this large estate is located in the northwestern portion of Chateauneuf du Pape and covers over 250 acres. The young Jean Abeille and Didier Fabre now manage the estate.
