Lucien Barrot Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2005

This was a really nice wine. Not ripe, over-extracted or heavy. Very elegant wine. More complex than I am used to with Chateauneuf. Concentrated. Not sure I would have recognized it as CNP blind. Really interesting and unique style. I guess they include stems. Drinking well now with no signs of fading.

Highly recommended.
