A candidate for wine of the vintage is the 2006 Chateauneuf du Pape Les Grenaches de Pierre. The essence of kirsch liqueur in that Rayas/Chateau Lafleur style, this wine has great intensity, full-bodied power, a seamless, silky integration of acidity and tannin, and a massive but light to the touch mouthfeel, this stunningly brilliant wine tastes like the Musigny of Chateauneuf du Pape. Drink it over the next 12-15+ years.

Very dense for the vintage, with a large core of blackberry, plum sauce and braised fig backed by loads of licorice and mocha. Long, round and powerful through the finish, with loads of fruit, graphite and grip in reserve. Best from 2010 through 2030. 290 cases made.
