Domaine de la Janasse Chateauneuf du Pape Vieilles Vignes 2003 Southern Rhone "One of the vintage's most compelling wines, the huge, dense purple-colored 2003 Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee Vieilles Vignes offers aromas of creme de cassis, creosote, and flowers along with immense concentration, body, and tannin. The finish is reminiscent of a first-growth Bordeaux, meaning it is well-delineated and tannic. Cellar it for 4-5 years and consume it over the following two decades." R. Parker, 97+ pts. 02/06 12 bottles (owc)
