2001 Domaine de la Vieille Julienne Chateauneuf-du-Pape Magnum

Tasting Note:

There are approximately 3,300 cases of the 2001 Chateauneuf du Pape a blend of 90% Grenache and the rest Counoise Mourvedre Syrah and Cinsault. I tasted it ten days after bottling and it is a brilliant effort that should merit a score in the low nineties after 3-4 years of bottle age. Bottled unfined and unfiltered (as are all of Vieille Julienne_s reds) and aged in neutral wood foudres for 18 months it boasts a deep ruby/purple color as well as a big sweet bouquet of kirsch liqueur licorice spice box and a notion of beef blood. Full-bodied textured and firmly structured with superb concentration high tannin and an uncompromising vin de garde style it requires 3-4 years of cellaring. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2018.
