A super Chateauneuf du Pape at a great price is getting harder to find these days

fine and flinty bouquet of perfectly ripe Riesling fruits

There is a bit more mid-palate density to the medium-bodied flavors that combine good power with evident muscle on the firm

Philippe Pacalet, Puligny Montrachet Vintage:2018 A super Chateauneuf du Pape(from 3 vineyards including Le Trzin). An attractively floral suffused nose enjoys top notes of both lemon rind and mint. I very much like the texture of the vibrant middle weight flavors that terminate in a clean and dry finish that is borderline tannic.
