Jean Luc Colombo Chateauneuf du Pape "Les Bartavelles" 750ml

WS 90
 
“Delicate swirls of toffee and caramel lend warmth and spice to this plump, creamy Syrah. Black cherry and berry flavours are cushioned by fine, velvety tannins.” – Wine Enthusiast
 
 
Jean-Luc Colombo is one of the most innovative and passionate winemakers working in the Rhône Valley today. Using his scientific background and a profound love of Syrah, he and his wife, Anne, opened the laboratory, “Centre Oenologique des Côtes du Rhône”, in 1984. The work their wine consultancy does earned them the Légion d’Honneur, which is the highest award a civilian can receive in France. This should be enough to tell you that their wines are not to be missed.
 
 
A bright and intense ruby blend of Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre. On the nose a powerful wine, full, complete and silky with notes of ripe fruit, liquorice, and gingerbread. The palate is elegant, rich and deep with mature and velvety tannins. The finish is long and fresh with a well-balanced structure. Matured in part in large oak barrels for 16 months. ‘Quite fruit-driven, with a big ball of cassis and red liquorice waiting to expand, while notes of Linzer torte, fruit cake and plum pudding fill out the broad, polished finish.’ 90 pts (2009) Wine Spectator.
