“Domaine Font de Michelle continues to make some of the most perfumed, silky and alluring Châteauneuf du Papes in the appellation. They’re always incredibly drinkable and are often the first bottle drained at a dinner party.”—Jeb Dunnuck |

94 Points Wine Advocate “The old vine cuvée 2012 Châteauneuf du Pape Etienne Gonnet is mostly Grenache, aged in old demi-muid, that’s made in a graceful, elegant and seamless style. Its dark ruby/semi-transparent color is followed by classic Grenache sweetness of fruit, garrigue, seaweed and crushed-flower-like aromas and flavors. Full-bodied, ripe and yet weightless on the palate, it makes you (me anyways) want to pour another glass. It will have 10-15 years of longevity.”

“A sleeper selection is the sexy 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape. It offers plenty of spice box, fruitcake, and black cherry jam notes along with a creamy texture, and opulent, lush, silky tannins. The vintage’s lack of excessive heat spikes has provided freshness as well as terrific aromatics.”—Robert Parker
