1 magnum bottle 2005 Paul Avril Clos des Papes, Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Rhone, France,
150 cl, 15.5% vol., filling level: high fill, excellent condition, untasted, 98 Wine
Spectator points. Robert Parker about the 2005: "Hitting a natural 15.5% alcohol,
Paul- Vincents 2005 Chateauneuf du Pape is decidedly more elegant and finesse-styled
now than it was on release, where it was more dominated by its tannic structure.
Still a youthful ruby color, it offers up a perfumed bouquet of kirsch and blackberry-like
fruits, licorice, incense, Asian spice and forest This is followed by a medium to
full-bodied, seamless, elegant wine thats lost all of its baby fat, yet still has
a core of sweet fruit, fine tannin and a balanced, harmonious feel. Its not a powerhouse,
and is drinking nicely today, with another decade of longevity To be enjoyed in the
magnum bottle until 2035. Provenance: From a private wine collection
