Clos St-Jean Sanctus Sanctorum is a Châteauneuf-du-Pape red wine that is only made in exceptional southern Rhône vintages. It is made from fruit from the oldest vines of Grenache in the elevated plateau of La Crau. It is aged entirely in demi-muid and bottled in magnum. "Flamboyant, open and exotic, with notes of kirsch liqueur, cassis, toasted almonds, sandalwood, lavender and crushed flowers that you can smell from across the room, the 2009 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Sanctus Sanctorum expands on the palate, with incredible concentration, sweet tannin and a finish that just won’t quit." 100 points, Wine Advocate, 2014

Glass-staining ruby. A kaleidoscopic bouquet displays scents of candied red berries, incense and Asian spices, accented by an overlay of smoky minerals. Sharply focused and pure, offering sweet raspberry and cherry compote flavors and a sexy floral pastille nuance. Finishes sweet, sappy and very long, echoing the floral note. Looks to be a star of the vintage, but I'm sure it won't come cheap.Josh Raynolds1st March 2011
