Chateau Maucoil Chateauneuf du Pape Privilege 2010

15% Imported by Orvino, Florida

This was a very nice wine, juicy and ripe in a classic, traditional way. After all the uninteresting ones from Garagiste, this was a fantastic change of pace. I love this style and wish they all could be like this. You could taste the white grapes in this wine. Decanted one hour. It did not improve after we started drinking it, probably because it was gone so quickly. Highly recommended. Has a sticker, "91 Points Wine Spectator Insider 9/30/2014". I would have given this more than 91 and interesting you would highlight or place a sticker on "just" a 91 pointer.

"Made with the 13 grapes of Chateauneuf du Pape", "Its soil is one of the oldest and the most typical of Chateauneuf du Pape, since 1926"
