2010 Château Simian "Le Traversier" Châteauneuf-du-Pape From Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate, "The 2010 Chateauneuf du Pape (70% Grenache, 20% Syrah and the rest Mourvedre and Cinsault) possesses wonderful sweet notes of black currants, raspberries, and cherries intermixed with hints of Christmas fruitcake, loamy soil, incense and licorice. Rich and full with good acidity and ripe tannin, it should age effortlessly for 10-15 years" 90 Points From Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, "Opaque ruby. Assertive aromas of raspberry preserves and cherry, with a high-pitched note of peppery spices. Fresh and light on its feet, offering zesty red fruit flavors that gain sweetness with air. Finishes smooth and long, with nicely integrated tannins and lingering florality." 90 Points
