The 2003 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Tradition shows the tell-tale resiny, cherry, spicy nose, muscular, firm, somewhat hard tannin, but medium to full body, plenty of herbes de Provence and kirsch, and a moderately long finish. Give it 1-2 years of bottle age, and drink it over the following decade.
