Clos Saint Jean Chateauneuf de Pape, Deus Ex Machina 2006 Rhone "In 2006, only a handful of other producers in Chateauneuf du Pape hit the heights achieved by Clos St. -Jean with the following wine. The inky/ruby/purple-colored 2006 Chateauneuf du Pape Deus-Ex Machina reveals notes of graphite, roasted meats, figs, plums, blackberries, and smoked herbs. The complex aromatic fireworks are followed by a full-bodied, rich, meaty wine with gorgeous purity, depth, and length. This cuvee should age effortlessly for two decades or more. How Vincent Maurel and Philippe Cambie were able to produce such stupendous wines in 2006 is remarkable. Readers should hasten to buy this wine ASAP!" R. Parker, 99 pts. 10/08 1 magnum
