Prestige des Princes Chateauneuf-du-Pape Reserve, Rhone, France 2015

Description

The 2015 Prestige des Princes Châteauneuf-du-Pape Réserve from Châteauneuf-du-Pape is rich, warm, and expressive, showing ripe blackberry, black cherry, garrigue, licorice, and peppery spice. The palate is full-bodied and generous, with smooth tannins, dark fruit concentration, and a savory, sun-soaked finish typical of the powerful 2015 vintage. Drinking well now with some youthful energy still present, it offers immediate pleasure while easily holding for a few more years.
