The Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cros de la Mure 2007 presents a deep, garnet color. On the nose, there are pronounced aromas of dark fruits like blackberries and plums, accompanied by herbal notes and hints of garrigue, typical of the Southern Rhône. The taste reflects the bouquet, with robust fruit flavors dominating the palate, alongside subtle spice and earthy undertones. The tannins are present but well-integrated, providing a somewhat structured mouthfeel.
Châteauneuf-du-Pape is known for its diverse terroir, with over 13 grape varieties permitted in its production. The Cros de la Mure vineyard is notable for its unique microclimate and soil composition, contributing to the wine`s complexity. 2007 was a warm year in the Rhône Valley, which resulted in grapes that achieved full ripeness, offering a balance of power and richness. This vintage showcases the traditional character of the region, reflecting both the craft of the winemaker and the influence of the local environment.

Vinous
Saturated ruby. Exotically perfumed scents of blueberry, mulberry, fruitcake and incense. Open-knit dark berry compote flavors provide impressive palate coverage, with velvety tannins providing shape. Expands with air and picks up notes of candied licorice and mocha that carry through a very long, spicy, warm finish. This is drinking well right now-especially if you like powerful, superrich Chateauneuf.Josh Raynolds1st January 2010
