JD 95+ (3/2012): A seriously concentrated, full-bodied Châteauneuf-du-Pape that has hardly budged since release, the 2007 Domaine de Cristia Renaissance (60% tank aged Grenache and 40% barrel aged Mourvèdre) is still primary and youthful, with blockbuster aromas of blackberry liqueur, vanilla, graphite, mineral, roasted meats, and subtle garriuge on the nose. Thrilling stuff on the palate, with awesome purity, decadent fruit, and solid underlying structure, this thrilling 2007 needs another 3-4 years of bottle age, and should drink well over the following two decades.
WS 95 (9/2009): Very plump and ripe, with black cherry, plum and blackberry fruit flavors that verge on jammy, before fresh spice, star anise and floral notes chime in to give added definition and length. Flaunts the showy side of the vintage. Grenache and Mourvèdre. Drink now through 2025. 500 cases made.
WA 94+ (10/2009): The monster wine is the inky purple-colored 2007 Chateauneuf du Pape Renaissance. This wine has only been made by Baptiste in 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2007. It is a blend of 60% Grenache and 30% Mourvedre, with the balance Syrah from 50- to 100-year-old vines. Despite the fact that there is only 30% Mourvedre in the blend, it seems to be the Mourvedre that dominates the wine at this stage of its development. It is very tannic, but the tannins are sweet and ripe, and the color an opaque purple. The wine displays notes of roasted meats, incense, and flowers, in a super-powerful, layered, multi-dimensional style. However, patience is required, despite the fact that this is a softer, more supple version of the behemoth that Cristia produced with this cuvee in 2005. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2030.
JLL **** (11/2008): Full red with black tints; the bouquet carries compact, sealed in black fruit - simmered berries here, with a top smokiness - has rather handsome potential. The palate fruit is good and classy, clear and smooth. Oak emerges later on. It is a touch dry and overly oaked on the finish now. Good balance - this will flow well from late 2011. |
