From a warm year in which the domaine took extra pains on the sorting table, the 2011 Chateauneuf du Pape is still dense, chocolaty and rich, tinged with notes of plum and blackberry. Full-bodied and open-knit, it remains fresh, with just a touch of dry tannin on the finish. Drink it over the next few years. Tasted at the estate. - Joe Czerwinski
