`Domaine de la Barroche Pure Châteauneuf-du-Pape 2007 is a 100% Grenache from some of the oldest vines of the Barroche domaine. A ripe, full-bodied Southern Rhône red wine, the Pure cuvée is aged in a combination of large oak foudre and cement tank before being bottled unfiltered. "Undeniably one of the greatest expressions of pure Grenache in the world. An awesome wine with an extraordinary nose of melted liquorice, spring flowers, black cherries, and black currants, the wine hits the palate with a full-bodied, thunderous impact but never, ever becomes heavy or ponderous. It is an ethereal, super-concentrated wine of great elegance, precision, and freshness, but with unbelievable concentration and length." Wine Advocate, 2009

Vinous
(16.5% alcohol) Inky purple. Huge, expressive bouquet shows dark berry, floral and fruitcake qualities, along with a smoky mineral note. Lush and creamy, with deep boysenberry and blueberry flavors and velvety tannins. Turns spicier on the back half and finishes with outstanding clarity and juicy persistence. As massive as this is, there's no sense of overripeness or excess weight.Josh Raynolds1st January 2010
