Even more impressive, the 2010 Chateauneuf-du-Pape Omnia (same blend and elevage as the 2009) shows the class of the vintage with its purity, richness and length. Showing a clean, focused array of blackberry, currants, pepper, liquid rock and wild herbs on the nose, this full-bodied, structured 2010 is still tight and compact on the palate. Nevertheless, the quality is front and center. Give it another 3-4 years in the cellar and enjoy it through 2025 or beyond. Drink 2016-2025+-JD
Ripe and lush, with crushed plum, blackberry confiture and pastis-soaked cherry fruit flavors forming the core. Crumpled velvet-textured tannins frame the finish, while charcoal and singed apple wood details hang in the background. Features a solid spine and ample weight and flesh, coming off perfumed and suave overall. Impressive and distinctive. Best from 2014 through 2029.–JM
