Wine Spectator: 95 Points
Rich and dark with delicious velvety layers of warm fig black currant and blackberry confiture flecked with hints of ganache roasted apple wood and tar. The finish has cut to match the heft. A real brick house. Best from 2020 through 2040.?J.M.
Vinous: 93-95 Points
"Vivid ruby. Sexy high-pitched red berry preserve floral pastille and Asian spice aromas show outstanding clarity. Sappy penetrating black raspberry spicecake and licorice flavors gain weight with air and pick up suggestions of blood orange and smoky minerals. Shows impressive depth and polish alluring sweetness and no rough edges. Showcases the best attributes of this warm vintage finishing with silky mounting tannins and lingering florality." -Josh Raynolds
Wine Advocate: 93 Points
"These days Vieux Donjon is one of the few estates in the region making only a single cuvée (Close des Papes is another). The 2015 Chateauneuf du Pape is a floral violet-scented wine that's supple and ripe. Only medium to full-bodied it showcases complex garrigue and licorice notes rather than oodles of red fruit and comes to a long silky finish."
