M. Chapoutier

94 PTS WINE SPECTATOR, The '09 Sizeranne is a very authoritative styl, broad structure, lots of cocoa and dark fig and espresso notes; rich and long in the finish

Very deep crimson color; amazing energy and richness; liqueur like red fruit flavors coat the palate; the finish is sweet and impressively persistent, with its richness and power.

The St Joseph Granits has a concentrated nose of blueberries and cherries with peppery aromas and hints of vanilla and liquorice;this wine shows great power and potency in its youth.

The Chapoutier Belleruche Rose is deep in color and rich on the palate; satisfying (as rich as many red wines); crisp and lively in the finish.

The M Chapoutier Bila-Haut is a sophisticated red from this part of France; ripe and round, yet polished and fine; some dried herbs in the finish.

88 PTS ROBERT PARKER JR. The '07 Chapoutier Belleruche Rouge exhibits deep ruby/purple hue; aromas of blackberries, cherries, road tar and earth; gobs of luscious fruit; silky tannins.

The Chapoutier Bellearuche Blanc exhibits the ripe fruit and savory spice often seen in a quality Cotes du Rhone; nice weight on the palate.

Chateauneuf-du-Pape is one of France's most historic wines. It was named after the Pope's new house when the Papacy relocated to Avignon in the 14th century and summer residences were constructed.

88 PTS WINE SPECTATOR The 1997 Chapoutier Cote Rotie is rich and full on the palate, showing smooth tannin structure. Lovely balance, with clean blackberry, mint, vanilla and blackpepper.

Chapoutier makes some of the finest wines in the world. Very mature flavors of plums & cherries, with hints of coffee. There is enough tannins for further aging....But why wait!

An outstanding wine, stunningly aromatic! Full-bodied, powerful & rich. yet drinking very well right now, this is the wine to serve with prime rib or New York Steak! AWESOME
