Clos des Papes Châteauneuf-du-Pape 1997 is a mature, full-bodied red wine from the Châteauneuf-du-Pape appellation of the southern Rhône Valley. `Run by successive generations of the Avril family, Clos des Papes has a long and illustrious history of producing exceptional quality wine in Châteauneuf-du-Pape. The 1997 offers a rare glimpse into the discreet charms of fully mature CNDP from this stand-out Rhône domaine.
88 Vinous
Deep red-ruby. Aromas of cherry, redcurrant, animal fur, spice and tobacco; much less primary than the '98. Redcurrant and smoke flavors seem a bit more evolved than those of the earlier bottling. Here the dusty tannins are a bit less ripe and there's a hint of greenness on the finish, which also features notes of leather, smoke and tobacco. This wine may well be starting to close down in the bottle.Stephen Tanzer1st January 2000
