"Also gorgeous with slightly more fruit and exuberance the 2011 Chateauneuf du Pape les Quartz is overflowing with sweet blackberry fruit ground herbs roasted meats and licorice aromas and flavors. Thrillingly Provencal with full-bodied richness loads of sweet fruit and sound underlying tannin this rocking Chateauneuf will deliver the goods over the coming decade. "

Bright ruby. Candied cherry blackberry anise and lavender on the deeply scented nose. Offers palate-staining dark fruit flavors that become livelier and spicier with air. Closes smooth and very long with velvety tannins adding shape and gentle grip. Just as impressive as the Safres but in a darker style with perhaps less elegance but more heft and power. Call it a Bonnes-Mares to the Safre's Musigny.
