Wafting from the glass with notes of cherries

this wine will be great for another 8-10 years

it is possible to make rich

Has a flicker of Northern Rhone character as well in terms of a wild rusticity

the ‘03 Garys’ is a shining example from this oh-so-hot Pinot wonderland

Chateau Simian, Chateauneuf du Pape 2007 Piedmont Wafting from the glass with91 CellarTracker Not really any bricking to speak of. A bit cloudy in the glass probably should have decanted for sediment. Bright red fruit on the nose with the typical CdP peppery nose. Ripe fruit on the palate. Resolved tannins. Good structure from the acidity. Drinking splendidly at the moment. Better with wild game bird than red meat at this point in its life. 4 18 2021
