A step up over the classic cuvee, there’s a scant 100 cases of the 2014 Chateauneuf du Pape St Georges. Made from 100% barrel aged Grenache from the Saint Georges lieu-dit (this is on the eastern edge of the appellation, near the village of Courthezon), it offers impressive notes of cassis, licorice, crushed violets and toasted bread. This gives way to a medium to full-bodied, elegant Chateauneuf that has high quality tannin, solid mid-palate depth and a terrific finish. It shows the vintage beautifully and will certainly be an outstanding wine.
