2015 Clos St Jean Chateauneuf du Pape V.V.... $99.99 / 1.5ltr
The 2015 reds from these two brothers are some of the gems in the vintage. Similar to the classic cuvée, except with another level of concentration and elegance, the 2015 Châteauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes sports a deep ruby/purple color to go with classic, Provençal notes of black cherries, cured meats, toasted spice and garrigue. Full-bodied, elegant, seamless, yet stacked and pleasure bent, it will shine from the get go and cruise for a decade or more.

The 2015 reds from these two brothers are some of the gems in the vintage. The 2015 Châteauneuf du Pape La Combe des Fous is another sensational wine. Full-bodied, gorgeously concentrated and yet with the ever present elegance and finesse this cuvée always possesses, it offers layers of black raspberries, crème de cassis, white flowers, licorice and cured meat-like aromas and flavors. It will certainly be one of the top handful of wines in the vintage.

Deeper, more masculine, graphite-laced and structured, the 2015 Châteauneuf du Pape Deux Ex Machina (60/40 Grenache and Mourvèdre) always shows a huge, meaty, roasted herb, kirsch and darker fruit profile. Like the other 2015s here, it shines for its purity, but this is a big, mouth-filling and unctuous beauty that’s both a hedonistic and intellectual turn on.Rated 95-98/100 The Wine Advocate
2015 Clos St Jean CDP Sanctus Sanctorum....$459.99 / 1.5ltr
(1 Magnum available)
More upfront, decadent and unctuous, I suspect the 2015 Châteauneuf du Pape Sanctus Sanctorum (Magnum Only) will be a candidate for perfection once bottled. Made from a single parcel of old vine Grenache planted on the famed la Crau lieu-dit, this heavenly beauty is loaded with notions of blueberries, Provençal spices, crushed flowers, black raspberries and crushed rocks. Full-bodied, layered, already sexy and textured, with building, sweet tannin, if this doesn’t make your eyes roll back in your head, I don’t know what will.
