2006 Clos des Papes Chateauneuf du Pape from this lot has the following scores - Jeb Dunnuck 96 points, The Wine Advocate 95 points, Wine Spectator 95 points. 2007 Clos des Papes Chateauneuf du Pape from this lot has the following scores - The Wine Advocate 100 points. This is the tasting note for 2007 Clos des Papes Chateauneuf du Pape from Robert Parker - with a score of 100 points. One of the great vintages from this estate, surpassing even the 1990, 2000, 2001, 2003, and maybe the 2010 (time will tell with this one), the 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape from Vincent Avril delivers everything you could want from a wine. Full-bodied, intense and beautifully concentrated, with plenty of muscle and depth, it shows the hallmark elegance and purity of the estate, with sensational notes of kirsch liqueur, raspberries, incense, smoked meats and Asian spices. The blend is the normal 65% Grenache, 20% Mourvedre, 10% Syrah and the rest a mix of permitted varieties, brought up all in older foudre, and it's just now entering its prime drink window and has another two decades of longevity. 2009 Clos des Papes Chateauneuf du Pape from this lot has the following scores - The Wine Advocate 97 points, Decanter 97 points, Wine Spectator 96 points, Jeb Dunnuck 95 points, Jeff Leve The Wine Cellar Insider 95 points.
