(90 - 92+ points) About as sexy as they come, the 2011 Châteauneuf du Pape Cuvée Marie Beurrier is just about overflowing with notions of kirsch, bouquet garni, Provençal garrigue and bloody meat. Medium to full-bodied, sexy, nicely concentrated and already hard to resist, it will probably see the inside of a bottle in the not too distant future. Henri commented that he wished he'd scheduled the 2011 to be bottled before the 2010, which is lined up for bottling as soon as possible.- JD
